Approx. 6 months ago a purchased a Nikon D90. I have been taking photos for years using a DSLR for surface and advanced P&S's for underwater. I am very close to purchasing an underwater housing for the Nikon D90. However, before putting that camera and a lens at "risk" I do have a question.
How significant is the image quality taken under water of a photo taken with a DSLR vs one taken with an advanced P&S?
I define an advanced P&S as one that the user can set the ISO, Shutter Speed and aperture setting.
As stated the DSLR I have is a Nikon D90 and the P&S I use is a Canon G9, both produce 12mp photos.
Because of sensor size I would expect the DSLR would produce less noise at a higher ISO, but what if any other improvements are their with a DSLR.
Thanks
