OMD-EM5 - I'm having second thoughts

Simply awesome!!!















My only complaint about the camera is that the battery would only last around 300 shots (without using the internal flash and using the electronic sync cable. If using the flash on 1/64 power and the optical cable, the number of shots would go down to around 250 shots) which means I have to change the battery after two dives. This may seem no big deal but I sometimes go diving on a day boat for 3 dives and I don't want to open the housing (Nauticam) on the boat in the middle of the ocean. Everything else is great about it.

Wow what great shots! Which camera/lens/housing/port/strobes? I like your exposure with the black background, I assume you use something like f11 manual?

edit: I see you already answered the housing question: Nauticam.

F stop has nothing to do with a black background. A high SS is what gives you a dark background....

1/320s (I use the electronic sync cord so I can go up that high).

Lens: 12-50mm and 60mm. I don't have the F stop handy now but F8 - F16 I think.
