I am not an underwater photographer. I bring along a Canon P&S w/ UW housing/flash diffuser in my bellows pocket to take a few shots of anything that is interesting so that I can show the kids afterward. I have read this article: Underwater Camera Articles: Best Underwater Point & Shoot Cameras for 2010 and am thinking about getting a Fantasea Remora strobe since my P&S photos are often not evenly illuminated and the slow shutter speed makes for blurry images at times. My buoyancy control is quite good, but it can be better and I am working on that. The problem is that while the P&S will fit in my bellows pocket, the strobe certainly will not. This might change the flavour of my dives, making the camera a more obtrusive part of the dive. Has anyone ever tried clipping off a camera + strobe on their back rear crotch strap D-ring? Will it be obtrusive during a dive? I suspect that I might just stick with the camera and no strobe...
