6 colorful underwater photography skills

The underwater world is colorful. Compared with land shooting, underwater shooting tests the photographer's skill and skill. Here are six colorful underwater photography techniques I collected for you, hoping to help you!

First, forced flashing.

If the subject is within 3-4 feet, you need to turn on the flash and set it to mandatory flash instead of automatic flash. The flash will show the color of the subject. If it doesn't open, it will be light blue.

Second, be familiar with the focal length.

Many times, when you want to use macro shooting mode, you must first thoroughly understand this mode and know the nearest focal length. Generally, the camera is above 1cm. You can't take a clear picture if you are too close.

Third, white balance adjustment

Don't shoot in cloudy or underwater mode.

When using the built-in flash, choose automatic white balance, and don't use cloudy mode or underwater mode, so the photos may appear red and orange.

Fourth, wide-angle shooting.

Try to shoot with a wide-angle end, so that your focus will be easier. Being close to the subject will make the subject bigger, instead of using a telephoto lens.

Five, head-up shooting

Try to keep your vision as level as possible with your goals and take snapshots where they face you.

Six, clever use of props

It is very important to adjust the white balance when you are far away from those subjects, because you don't need a flash. With custom white balance, diving tablet is the best standard choice for white balance.
