Epic photos. I'm hoping to make Malawi in the next year or two. Just gotta make sure I go with Larry Johnson, lol.
May I ask what camera setup you used?
For this trip...
nikon D60
18-55 VR lens
Ikelite housing, with dome port
two ikelite DS50 strobes.
next time i will take my Nikon D90, and bigger DS200 strobe.
i took the wrong lens, its a good all around above water lens, but underwater, not so good, and i used the wrong port for this lens choice.
the camera is not as important as the lighting (strobes), correct port for lens, and lens choice.
I could have took my older D70 (less MP than my D60 and D90), and it would have done better than my D60 if i selected other lenses and ports.
The main 4 lenses that nikon "pro's" use for underwater are...
Nikon 105mm
Nikon 10.5mm
Nikon 60mm
Tokina 10-17mm (much better than Nikons version).
all pricey lens, 500-1000 each compared to my 18-55, and 55-200 nikon VR's which can be found for $100 to $200.
I have the 105mm coming, and maybe ill pick up the Tokina before heading to Tanganyika in 2012.
