Crap, now I'm jealous. Anybody want to buy my photography gear so I can switch over to Canon?

Job well done, I hope to achieve similar results when I'm in Bonaire in July.

Thanks for the kind words. I am definitely hooked and it is nice to know I can get good results with no strobe. 26 years of diving....damn I wish I would of had a camera for all the great stuff I have seen! This camera is very easy to carry or clip to my BC, which I really like.

Here are a couple more for now.

I used settings suggested by Diver85........Try shooting in Av, use the flash of the camera, leave the ISO on 80(lowest), white balance on UW setting, macro all the time, F-stop on 2.8 to 4(try several different ones & edit on the go)--- that ought to get it.......I used 2.8 on almost every picture.

Did you have the flash set to Auto or just On all the time?

Did you have the flash set to Auto or just On all the time?

Flash was on all the time. Never turned it off. In AV mode it is either on or off.
