Course Description

During the PADI Digital Underwater Photographer Specialty course, you learn to use the PADI SEA (Shoot, Examine and Adjust) method, which takes full advantage of digital technology. The result is good underwater photos faster than you may imagine.

You not only learn how to take good photos, but how to share them with your friends via email or printing, getting the best out of your shots with your computer and more. Covered during the course:

Choosing and using modern digital cameras and underwater housings.
Using the PADI SEA method for getting great shots quickly.
Editing and sharing your pictures.
The three primary principles for getting good photos underwater.

Must be a PADI Open Water Diver or Junior Open Water (or have a qualifying certification from another training organisation).

Certification counts toward the Master Scuba Diver rating.
