Who should take this course?

Underwater photography is one of the most popular diving specialties, and with so many underwater cameras to choose from, it has become easier and more fun than ever to capture images of your underwater scuba adventures. The PADI Digital Underwater Photographer course gets you going quickly, whether you use a point-and-shoot camera or a sophisticated DSLR like the pros.

 

PADI (Junior) Open Water Divers who are at least 10 years old are eligible to take the Digital Underwater Photographer course.

 

Because underwater photography is also popular with snorkelers, there is an option for avid snorkelers and skin divers to complete the course. Call us at 252-726-9432 if this interests you.

·        The PADI SEA (Shoot, Examine, Adjust) method for getting great shots quickly.
