SeaLife SportDiver Ultra and SeaDragon 3000F FYI’s/Tips/Helpful Info Requested

[Peabodey]

Hello!

I recently bought a new SeaLife SportDiver Ultra and the SeaLife SeaDragon 3000F light setup. I’d really appreciate any tips, suggestions, FYI’s, etc. We are spending two weeks in Cayman in the Fall (will be my boyfriend’s first ocean dives and I want to capture the magic!) and I’d love to have as much experience and knowledge as possible with it before then.
I have read the manual, looked at some online forums, and watched some YouTube videos but nothing is really providing the answers I’m looking for.
Also, I am not a tech savvy person so while I am looking forward to spending a lot of time learning…..I prefer information presented in beginner terms as far as the technology goes.
Also, any tips on the actual photography would be appreciated as well!

THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR EVERYONE’S HELP AND INPUT!!!

What sort of info are you looking for? I have the SportDiver housing, no idea what changed to make it an ultra.
Overall it’s a very simple to use system and takes some great pictures which is more about the phone, the absence of manual white balance is the only drawback but the phone photo app can edit that most of the time.
To practice with it just load the phone in the housing and walk around taking pictures and you’ll easily get the hang of it.

At least half of getting a good picture from a photo is doing adjustments after.
You may not need the light much in the tropics.
