Why PADI Digital Underwater Photographer?

Capture your vacation memories! The PADI Digital Underwater Photographer specialty introduces you to basic photography techniques and terminology, allowing you to snap the best possible pictures underwater. Since buoyancy is a critical part of good underwater photography, you can enhance your photographs by combining the course with the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy specialty. If you have just acquired a new underwater camera, this course will help you get the most out of it. We also have cameras available for rent; see our Rental Gear page for more information on camera rental.

What do I need to start?

You need to be at least 10 years old, and be PADI Open Water certified (or equivalent certification from another organization), and a digital camera that can go underwater (or rent one from us). It is also extremely beneficial to have good buoyancy control, as this will greatly increase the quality of your underwater photos.
