Following on from my chat about the cameras and lenses we use I then did another about the housings by Nauticam that we use. Here’s the complete uncut video and I’ll put some relevant links below it that you might find of interest.

INON Strobes and Ring Flashes Chat

My latest live chat on our Facebook Page was looked at a couple of subjects that viewers asked about during previous talks. This time I looked at the features and differences between the various strobes in the INON range including early ones that are no longer made but can still be found on the used market. After that I talk about using ring flashes and why I don’t use one myself.

Also what ports for underwater housings go with the lenses and some of the specific features of Olympus Micro Four-Thirds cameras.

So here’s a collection of tips covering what we tried and what we felt we would do differently next time. Although mainly about the photographic side of the trip I’ll throw in some general advice for the non-photographers planning a safari.
