I got my first dive certification at age 14, at 18 I had acquired a Nikkonos V with a 35mm! That was my first UW rig, today and after having tried many underwater housings, Nauticam is what I consider to be the best brand. We are proud to have sold a few prints to several magazines and also have a few available (at a reasonable cost) on our gallery!
I use Canon equipment, primarily a 5D Mk IV & III for shooting weddings, egagement, or honeymoon photo-shoots. For landscape, fine art underwater scenes I will use my Canon 5DSr to get images at 50 mega pixels. Some clients like to know details, so here ya go - My selection of lenses are:
24-70 f2.8 - One of my favorite for weddings, engagement type shootings
70-200 f2.8 - Usually mounted on a second body for Bonnie during weddings. Great use for landscape panoramic images with stitching.
16-35 f2.8 - Used during weddings at times if our clients wish to have wide scenes as well as underwater.
24-105 f4 - Very versatile lens, great use for engagement shoots during daytime.
100-300 f5.6-6.3 - We mostly use this lens during sporting events.
15mm fisheye - One of my favorite to shoot with clients in the water.
The combo 5D MK IV & the 24-70 is my primary gear for wedding/honeymoon shoots. At times and for larger ceremonies, Bonnie will shoot with a 5D MK III and the 70-200 - That allows us to cover many angles / distances without being too intrusive and break our clients' glasses:-)
Tianna & Marques - The St. Regis Bora Bora
When shooting in the water with clients wishing to capture mid-air water images, I will use the fisheye and the Canon 5Dmk III most of the time. If they are more into capturing submerged images, the 16-35 is a great lens for this work.
