This is the second episode of our PixTips video blog, which we filmed recently when FiNS Magazine contributor Tony Wu and ScubaCam owner David Cheung were both in Bangkok for a couple of days. In this episode, Tony and David talk about o-rings and flooding of underwater imaging gear, and David gives a few useful pointers for beginning u/w photographers and videographers.

Be sure to watch to the very end to see a unique way to express frustration with flooded gear.

There’s also a higher resolution iPod-compatible version available for download on our iTunes podcast.

To complement our regular PixTips column in the magazine, we’ve started a video version, hosted by FiNS Contributor Tony Wu. In this first video column, Tony introduces us to sTTL, which is a way to achieve TTL-like exposures underwater.

See Tony’s blog for links and contact information relating to the equipment mentioned in the video.
