What will I learn in the Liquid Lense Underwater Photographer Course?
The 4.5 day course is split into camera equipment training, 6 open water dives and advanced editing techniques:
During the session in the Liquid Lense edit suite, you’ll learn about photographic composition, techniques, light and colour and how to utilize these to make your photos stand out! You’ll discuss aperture, shutter speed, ISO and manual settings.
You’ll become familiar with the underwater camera you will be using, and discuss which settings and controls to use. We’ll also run through proper care and set-up of the underwater housing
During the days out on the boat you’ll complete 2 dives per day accompanied by one of our Liquid Lense experts.
You’ll check the housing prior to diving, review your goals for the day, and be set a series of shot types, including sunburst, silhouette, fast moving subjects, flash, black background, low light, macro, divers with marine life and portraits. You’ll move from Program to Manual settings, adjust your ISO and learn to manually evaluate white balance. You’ll experiment with angles and positions, and have an extra day practical hands-on experience in which to concentrate on any area you wish. Maybe you even want to try an external strobe?
