Underwater Strobe
I just bought a digital camera underwater SeaLife, should I buy a flash, too?
I just bought the DC800. Does it take good pictures underwater without a flash or strobe. The flash costs about $ 300 so I do not want to buy one unless its real needs. Thank you.
It depends on where you take pictures. Superficial or deep. The longer you go the less light, so the clarity of the water plays an important role one as well. Large Strobe light flashes up smaller particles. To specifications. it looks like a nice camera. Remember strobes also make the device more bulky to carry as well. I would try it before spending more money. 90-95% of divers take pictures not to use Strobes. Although the best pictures are often taken with flash.
