Here's a few more taken with my DC800 on my trip to Belize at the beginning of March. As one diver in our group noted the size of the grouper was a DF12. (dinner for 12)

is that last picture a tarpon?
DF12.. I love it!
Great pictures. Looks like you used a strobe. Man that makes the pictures pop.

Yes. I was in the middle of about 12 - 4-5ft Tarpon spinning around snapping pictures. They look so cool underwater, they almost seem to be covered in aluminum foil.

All the shots were taken with the DC800 and a strobe.

As mentioned before this was my first trip with an u/w camera and it took a hundred or so pictures before I started to get the hang of it. I'm now starting to experiment with the strobe off of auto and just dialing it down a bit depending on the amount of available light. For instance the tarpon shot was only in about 28 ft of water with a sandy bottom so there was quite a bit of natural light so I didn't need much flash. You can see the reflection of the coral overhang in the tarpon's body.

Thanks for the compliments Skipper.

What are your setting with the pro flash (please tell me they are sea... that will explain a ton)

They should be external flash with a pro strobe setup...
