Foreword
In the old days of underwater photography, when camera systems
were expensive and bulky, taking pictures underwater was a
privilege enjoyed by a small number of dedicated enthusiasts who
would go to great lengths to travel to a suitable site, shoot a
maximum of 36 exposures and have to wait until the film was
processed to know whether any images would be usable.

difficult to keep track of the leaps and bounds in technology.

which rival the most sophisticated dSLR set-ups at a fraction of
the price and bulkiness.
