Protect Your Photos From Being Stolen

This page is devoted to helping you with camera settings to capture fluorescence video and or still shots. One thing you will learn very quickly is that fluo photography can be very challenging compared to “normal” underwater shooting. This is because the fluorescence effect is so diminutive or dim. Underwater camera work can be challenging enough without throwing this into the mix. It takes a fair amount to “tinkering” and practice to get consistently good shots and video. One thing you will learn is that there is no “correct” or “proper” way to do fluo photography. There are of course things that apply no matter what the environment or equipments you are using but ask ten professionals what is best and you will get eleven answers.

This page will be a “living document” of suggested settings we receive from customers and staff personnel who have done the trials to see what works. You can then use these suggestions to hopefully get you close to good results from your very first foray out. If you have suggestions that you would like to share – please send them in. Use the Contact Us link and we will publish your suggestions on this page with full attribution to you.
