Underwater Galleries

Aquapac Photos : These photos were taken using an waterproof Aquapac compact camera case. The positives: It pretty much works as advertised, keeps my camera dry and takes decent enough pictures through the clear plastic. Above water you can barely tell that it was taken through the case. The negatives: It's difficult to operate the camera underwater because of the water pressure. Also, picture quality is only so-so due to lens distortion. This would probabably work a lot better on a camera that doesn't have a lens that extends. With such a low pricepoint, it's a great way to have fun with your digital camera in all sorts of wet conditions. And with a little more practice, I know I can get better shots with it. *Update*: I've managed to take much better pictures with the Aquapac after attaching a tube/dish to keep the front of the pouch from pressing or warping against the lens of the camera. I fashioned this little device from the cardboard covers that they put on clean glasses in hotel rooms -- works pretty well now!
