THE
SECOND LESSON
The
second thing I learned -this time not the hard way-
was how very important it is to know exactly where the camera's
controls are. Lots of practice on dry land -in my room in
fact- allows me to change settings with just a glance to
check if correct.

The
Nikonos V at work with the UW Nikkor 20mm f/2.8, SB-103
underwater flash on the fish school.
The
SB-103 was voluntarily recalled by Nikon some time back,
to be replaced at no cost with the newest scuba diving
high performance speedlight, the SB-105. Nice.
I still have it.

wife, with great patience to understand my hand signals,
turns into my camera, this time with the W 35mm f/2.5 Nikkor,
to take her picture with an angel fish that had taken refuge
from the tourists in a small hole in the 'Manchones'
reef at Cancun. |
