Hello,
I really want to get into underwater photography, but I don't have much of an idea on what I need. My entire photo taking experience has been limited to on the surface (not counting the chap u/w cameras) I am comfortable with digital, and am a pretty advanced Adobe photoshop user, but am not opposed to film. I don't mind spending money, if I get results for what I pay for- but being new am not sure i am ready for a big investment yet. What I am looking for are some good reccomended set-ups for a beginner that allows for some growing room as well. I was hoping to be in the $500 range (not sure if that is parctical) Most of my pics will be in the pacific NW, and I have been told that for any serious photography an external strobe is a must. So if you got any suggestions, please reccomend a good beginner package. thanks!!
