Digital Underwater Photographer
The purpose of the PADI Digital Underwater Photographer specialty course is to familiarize divers with the skills, knowledge, planning organization, procedures, techniques, problems, hazards and enjoyment of underwater still photography. The course is intended to serve as a safe and supervised introduction to underwater still photography techniques used in the underwater environment. Skills will develop practical knowledge of photographic principles, composition, strobe and available light photography and camera-handling techniques.
