I get nervous about task loading for a diver with less than 100 logged carrying a camera, but you need to get down in the ocean to really learn what works. An external strobe will help but don't rush into that at this point. Let's see if you hit 100 without drowning or losing the camera or yourself. Did you get an orange wrist strap?I'm a little late, but I had a lot more luck using the snorkel mode when testing my DC1200 in a pool. Sea mode was too dark. I don't have an external strobe, though.
I agree, however, this mitigates a few of the possible problems... like worrying about dropping the camera, or having it get in the way of other wrist mounted components. It stays tight and clipped until you undo the middle clip, and you're free to shoot, and still free to drop it if need be (without losing it)... the better mousetrap:I get nervous about task loading for a diver with less than 100 logged carrying a camera, but you need to get down in the ocean to really learn what works.

Hope the leash is secure as finding a floating, black camera at sea would be challenging.I didn't buy the floaty strap but I have a leash for the camera and since it's positively bouyant, I'll settle with that for now.
