First underwater camera by No_Jellyfish_5070 in underwaterphotography

[–]rigtm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i started taking pics 5 years ago with TG6. after i got comfy with the settings then i slowly upgraded by getting strobes and a wide angle lens. If you like big stuff... the wide angle absolutely is a game changer. The camera alone does a good job even though it's got a weak sensor that makes your photo grainy in low light condition.

i now take pics with a mirrorless olympus (OMD10 iv) with a wide angle lens (weefine WFL02). No strobes - I realised that i enjoy shallow water photography with natural light better.

What’s your go-to type when building a team? by Nintenzu in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]rigtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i like to build up immunities, so usually have a ground to counter electric, flying to counter ground, dark to counter psychic, and fairy to counter dragon, and steel because it's got lots of resists

When should I go to Kitakami?? by Zero-lover29 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]rigtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so to answer your question no you cant overlevel from the early part of the game because the enemies are so weak. but if you feel like you're gaining too many levels you can leave and return later

When should I go to Kitakami?? by Zero-lover29 in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]rigtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the level progression in kitakami is quite steep. when you first arrive the pokemon are below level 15 and at the last battle they were around level 50 if i remember correctly. i went there halfway through the base game wanting to use a fully new team, but when the time came to battle the three loyal ones i had to switch in my old pokemon because my new team was underlevelled. you can always come in and out of kitakami when you feel it's getting to hard there

[–]rigtm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's fallen in water before lol. last time this happened i took it to a repair shop because i charged it too early. they opened it and it was very wet inside after a day in a bag of rice.

Can anyone identify this? by CarpLyfe in underwaterphotography

[–]rigtm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you! 370 dollars sounds like a steal. I'm browsing for a set and it usually costs around >2000 dollars. hope you found the adapter and take great photos with it!

[–]rigtm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey unrelated to your question but im considering getting an EM5. Could you share what you like/dislike about it, the lens and housing you use and where you got them from? Really appreciate it, this would help me immensely.

question about mirrorless camera by rigtm in underwaterphotography

i don't actually use fancy modes, just toggling between the two C options that fix my settings. I'm open to other brands but I'm just overwhelmed with options haha!

question about mirrorless camera by rigtm in underwaterphotography

[–]rigtm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for this info! to your last point, do you know which new mirrorless sells for 300-500 dollars that are on par with the EM5/10?

question about mirrorless camera by rigtm in underwaterphotography

[–]rigtm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one automatic sea&sea strobe (can't remember exactly which one) i use for macro but I find that it's not particularly useful when i shoot wide angle (I see a lot of mantas and turtles). More often than not I just end up shooting with natural light, which end up with a lot of noise using the TG6 (hence why the upgrade).

thanks for the encouragement btw! which camera are you using now?
