I
live in Nottingham and have been taking photographs underwater
for about 6 years. I started off with a Nikon f80 in a Hugyfot
housing and a huge single Ikelite 400 strobe. I then moved to
digital with a Nikon D70 in a subal housing with Inon Z220 strobes.
The kit I have now is a Nikon D200 in a Sea & Sea housing
and 2 Inon strobes. I travel abroad as often as possible to
take underwater images.
