Hi Guys

Thought I'd post a few images taken with a Fuji F30 and its U/W housing just using internal flash - which will be getting remedied very soon I hope via a new strobe :D .
You hear a lot about peoples set up but dont get to see many of the pix to tell whether that set up is for you or not. Pix have been resized to be able to upload but you get the idea I hope.
These were taken in Ras Mohammed National Park near Sharm el Sheikh a few weeks back.

Nice shots!
 
Shot in Bonaire, using an external strobe (Sea & Sea YS 90 DX with fiberoptic adapter) shooting aperture or shutter priority and manual strobe adjustments.

Pros:
1. Sturdy little camera, survived my wife dropping it on concrete!
2. Reasonably fast shutter response for a point and shoot
3. Excellent low light focus
4. Video mode works suprisingly well underwater, even picks up sound throught the casing
5. Excellent sturdy inexpensive fuji housing with double seals
6. Amazing in low light topside.

Cons:
1. Shutter priority picks wide open aperture, aperture priority picks slow shutter speed. Really needs a full manual mode
2. Poor edge sharpness underwater. No problems topside. Overall underwater sharpness fair, not as good as my deceased Oly c5060W
3. I miss the wide angle of my C5060
