Hello folks, I'm new to this board and I found it after a search for some information about the UW-Case for the Lumix TZ7 which I both own now

I skimmed through this thread and saw some really magnificant photos and videos! Now I am wondering if somebody would be so kind to give me some tipps with this camera regarding underwater photography. Is the UW mode given with the software a good one, or are there some measures I could take manually?

Next monday I am going to Khao Lak, Thailand, so I hope I get some answers until then to get some great shots there

For photos the best way to go is with manual settings and especially a strobe.
With videos UW mode worked fine for me most of the time, but lights or shallow
dives will help to preserve colors more.

if you're not confortable using manual mode try aperture priority "A" mode. the camera will set the shutter speed for you according to the light. Get real close to your subjects, do take time to frame them. I think we all shoot away initially but if you do you won't have many keepers. I've posted some advice on rigging the camera too, you can check out my other threads. All the best, I wish I could go to thailand soon!
