These are somewhat experimental. Maybe my last dive of the year (shoulder surgery at the end of the month) so I decided to play around. I've been having consistent trouble getting good focus and lighting on Super Macros, as the camera is so close to the subject that it blocks the light (usually within 2 inches). I've never really used the zoom underwater except to get rid of the vignetting on my 16mm WA lens. I took most of these from about a foot away, using the zoom and cranking up my settings from my usual 1/60 @ f5.6 to my close up setting of 1/200 @ f8. In some ways, I'm quite happy with the results, though I think I lost quite a bit of DOF with the zoom.
