pictures from Cuba 2006

Cheating? or one of the benefits of larger MP camera? I think it's a benefit to take a 7mp photo, crop the center, and reduce the size... boom... instant macro - from far away.

you're right, that is a very good benefit. If the casing was the same, I might think about upgrading my cam to a larger MP cam. technology improve so fast it's hard to keep up with it.

Sometimes, the inner flash didn't fire intentionnaly to avoid backscatter. I will try to resolve this by purchasing a nice strobe If anyone has good advice for a strobe that would fit on my Canon A-75 and on other cams (because they are not eternal ) and that is not too cheap nor expensive, I would appreciate.

Now you've done it. You want a strobe today, add-on lenses tomorrow . The costs just pile up. But it's all worth it. BTW, I have an Inon d-2000 and I love it. Simple and easy to use.

Looking forward to reading you trip report.

Eric, I too would like to see your trip report? We are thinking about going but not sure how. Did you go with a group or by yourselves. Did you depart US, Bahamas or Canada?

what kind of camera do you shoot with

Canon Powershot A-75, Digital, 3.2Megapix and with a 130ft water resistant casing. It has been replaced by A-610 I think or A-5xx. Jam would know.

This one is not inverted. It was taken on a 1800's wreck (Cristobal Colon)

That fish sure can swim great upside down! Here's the photo rotated 180 degrees.

But then the surface is at the bottom

It may seem funny but it was really swimming upside down inside the wreck like if it was nothing. It's not an april fools day joke
