First time pictures using Canon A720IS in Bonaire

What a great variety! Very nicely done

I would, however, suggest that you try f4 or smaller for your aperture as 2.8 leads to "soft", not quite sharp, photos quite a lot of the time. I can't remember the last time I opened up beyond f4 on my Canon A series cameras.

I have the same camera and housing, and have been experimenting with various settings. Your first time is much better than my first time with this camera. I really like the camera, and will try the settings you used the next time, which will be a NW Bahamas liveaboard trip.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks. Will try that next trip this fall.

Great pictures. Pretty amazing ain't it what you can do with a A720IS and Canon housing setup.

Nice photos

Did you say these were taken with a G9?

Great shots, I really like the juvenile french angelfish. Bonaire is a great place for sharpening those photography skills.

Also, I think that puffer is a Sharpnose Puffer with the Juvenile Blue Tang.

Excellent shots, A coworker just got back from Bonair and he keeps telling me how incredible it is. Seeing these definately makes we want to get there quicker.

Nice shots!

I just ordered an A650 (with Canon housing) to take along to Grand Cayman in June. I was originally going to get the 720, then changed my mind at the last minute and ordered the 650. Hope I don't regret it!
