Coolpix L6 Underwater Is there a way that I can take underwater photography without using a Waterproof Camera? I have a Nikon Digital Coolpix P100 camera and I love the ocean...is there this special covering that allows it to go underwater?
There are two types of underwater 'housing' as they're called. There's a flexible pouch/bag type arrangement, into which most compact cameras will fit (they also do one for DSLR's as well). I see you camera is a 'bridge' type, so you'd probable want a DSLR version. These are not specific to camera model. You operate the camera by pressing the buttons through the plastic housing. The other type is a rigid plastic housing, which has buttons on the outside of the housing which in turn operate the camera's buttons inside the housing. Because of this (buttons having to be in the right place) these types of housings are model-specific & if they don't make one for your camera you're out of luck. The flexible bag type is cheaper, and is generally reliable provided you use it properly & take care of it. It will have shallow depth limitations however. See link; http://www.camerasunderwater.co.uk/ewa_marine/slr/housings.html If you take it too deep, not only will there be a greater chance of leaks, but the water pressure outside the bag will tend to push buttons you don't want it too!! If you are swimming, snorkelling this sort of housing should be fine. The folks at Cameras Underwater are very helpful, so its worth giving them a ring if you are in the UK. I can't find a rigid housing for your particular camera model - they seem to make them for the compact Nikons & the DSLR's but not the bridge camera! With all housings the watertight seal is the weak spot. You need to make sure there is no sand, grit, hair, etc on the rubber seal when you close it or you'll get leaks. Wash salt water off the housing when you get out the water while the camera is still sealed inside. Good underwater images are about getting close to your subject (light levels fall off rapidly). Flash is not a good idea unless it is 'off camera'. There's something really cool about the whirring of the shutter on a high quality digital camera; it's great weather once again, everyone's out snapping away to their heart's content, and each time you hear that shutter snap and hope for a great picture, it's a great way to spend summer's day. And the camera makers are falling over themselves to give you great user-friendly (not to mention pretty-looking) products to tempt you into photography with. And how great is it when they bring newer features in each year and even make them affordable? The best of what I like this year are cameras that go underwater without compromising any on picture quality, and ones that will shoot hi-def video like a dedicated camcorder and even free up the zoom for use during a video shoot. If you need one now, this is about the best time it's ever been to go out buying digital cameras. Let's start with the cheerfully mid-priced models. I put my money on the Lumix DMC-Z7 that goes for $300 at most online retailers' websites. I love Lumix for the way they make bulletproof cameras that are still affordable and fully featured. This little beauty has a 12x zoom, and it has this new killer feature for the new social media in-thing called Location Sharing. You take a picture, and the inbuilt GPS in the camera will print on a corner of the picture, numbers for your exact coordinates. Certainly it has a killer zoom, but that's hardly anything worth aany buzz these days. For a camera to appear quite accomplished now, you need a wide-angle lens; and the Z7 doesn't disappoint - with a great 25mm model for great panoramas and landscape pictures. And Lumix has some of the most reliable image stabilization technology around - something you really need when people insist on taking their pictures with their cameras held at arms length. If this doesn't seem cheap enough for a certain discriminating section of the market that demands cool on the budget, as college students and teenagers do, try the Nikon CoolPix L22, a smart little number that is simple and quick to use, has a basic zoom and wide-angle lens, has powerful image stabilization (presumably for drunken frat parties), and auto everything. You know that it's great for the college market when you look at how simple it is to upload pictures on Facebook with this device. Anyone who was a part of a spring break trip in Miami could possibly consider buying digital cameras of the new rugged variety that they make today. How about picking up a Pentax Optio W90 for about $250? To begin with, this is a rugged, rugged camera that really won't complain when you drop it - into a pool. It comes with a carabiner (a handle) as opposed to a wrist strap, and is waterproof, dust proof and sand proof. The best thing about it is, it doesn't sacrifice on great image quality for all of this. And if you worry about letting your camera drop to the bottom of the ocean, you could consider replacing the carabiner with a $10 floater wrist strap. Buying digital cameras at the higher end of the market, somehow usually ends up in a Canon EOS for me most of the time. This stalwart line of cameras that supporters century-old, ups the ante a couple of times every year, and today's Rebel T2i is even named for the part. It starts at $850 , and you get a 55mm lens as part of the deal. A digital camera is all about sensor, and the new APS-C sensor as large, accurate, and painfully high death. What is more, the video resolution is full HD - although you'll need a special external microphone for sound. It's a digital SLR, and it's a worthy contender. As I said, it's a great season to consider buying digital cameras. The prices are low, and the technology levels are where they need to be.
