Underwater Camera

The girls and myself went swimming this afternoon over at our local YMCA, we try doing that as often on a Sunday afternoon as possible, particularly in the winter to simply get out of the house.

Today we had an extra incentive; well the geeky Dad did anyhow. One of my work colleagues lent me an underwater camera. It’s an actual waterproof camera instead of a camera in a casing, an Olympus Stylus Tough 6020, and it worked really well.

It was hard to get adjusted to it at the start, the shutter lag was tricky having had an SLR for quite some time. Shutter lag is tough to adjust to when you also have to dive up and down to catch breath whilst explaining all of that to a 3 and 5 year old.

It was fun see the best few shots below.
