Your making good shots with the G9 look easy.

message Thanks Brian!

When the white balance is in the right direction it is not that diffecult to get a good shot with the G9.

Unfortunately didn't have a wide angle lens for this shot as the Mola was very close and i couldn't get the full shot (with complete fins).

smile actually had the UCL165 unscrewed while making this shot. While posting, probably mentioned the UCL automatically because using it for 95% of all my shooting. Will change it right away!

Do you by the way use 2 stacked UCL's or 3 for your macro? Hopefully will be able to start using a second one when my friend comes to Indonesia next week..

message Most of the time I use one UCL but with the very tiny stuff I use two stacked. I don't think I could manage the focus/ DOF with three.

Do you use RAW?

message Shoot all my underwater photo's in Raw, camera and strobe set in manual except for auto focus.

Hope to get a second UCL for stacking soon from Singapore as special equipment is hard to get here in Indonesia.
