1. Always do a test shot before going in the water. This is gonna help you to know that you have enough battery, enough memory card space and maybe sometimes
we even put the lid on the lens so, it's nice to know before going in the water.
2. Your free diving fins, especially
carbon, are gonna help you to stabilize your videos, these are gonna make super smooth movements and keep you
controlled your camera when you're diving.
3. The closer you get to your subjects, the more color, sharpness and contrast you will have.
4. Whenever you review a shot of a photo that you just take, instead of watching only the display, use your
histogram which is a scientific explanation on how how light was absorbed in that photo, use that as a reference instead of your display, because then ... might seem that it's okay but maybe it's overexposed or underexposed and you're not sure until you get home and open it in the computer so, using your histogram is better.
5. When you're approaching wildlife or your subject or your free diving model, make sure you approach slowly and from your level. This is gonna make a much better shot and also make animals more comfortable. Since we're freediving, we're not producing bubbles, we're not making noise so, let's take advantage of that.
6. Composition is key, so play around with it, follow rules and also break the rules. Get inspiration from your favorite photographers and work on your own style,
it's all about enjoying.
