Hello

Hello,

I've been diving for about 3 years and taking photos for about the last year, so far only put my camera (Ixus 750) into an underwater case and taken some snaps, now I'm looking to improve my shots, I've been looking at getting a fisheye lens and eventually a strobe.

Hi Carly welcome to Digigreen.

Buying a wide angle lens will make a huge improvement in the quality of your photos. It allows you to get so much closer to your subject yet keep it all in the frame - as you may know, getting closer to your subject is a cardinal rule in underwater photography.

Anyway, feel free to post any photos you take.

Tim

Hi Carly

Welcome.
A wide-angle lens is a great addition. Also an external strobe is pretty high up on my list of essential underwater gear. Inon strobes are small and good quality.
