Best Underwater Photo "how to" ever!
Best Underwater Photo "how to" ever! Tells you how to "reverse engineer" great photos and explains the basic types of U/W photo's. Then explains in very practical terms how to create them. It's out of print and technically out of date but the principles he explains will never go out of style!

I recommend this superb book to all U/W photographers.
I have read this book several times, and review it before any major photo expedition.Howard concentrates on the essential art of underwater photography in a concise, readable, meaningful way. He avoids extraneous technical information that so many other manuals use as filler, and focuses clearly on the essence of underwater photography.I gave my original copy away as a gift, and was overjoyed when I was able to pick up a used copy of this out of print paperback. I recommend this superb book to all underwater photographers, new and old. ... Read more

Excellent manual for the technically-minded
This is a well-written, thorough and detailed manual on all aspects of underwater photography, from the basic operation of cameras, through the diving techniques needed to photograph shy fish, up to the vagaries of photography competitions. It is now somewhat out-of-date with regard to equipment, and does not cover digital cameras at all. However it is an unrivalled source of information on key topics (such as underwater optics, the repair of flooded equipment, and the weaknesses of different manufacturers' designs) that are not available in other books.

Excellent book for beginners and experienced photographers
De Couet and Green have done a tremendous work. Written in true textbook format, this is the perfect book for the intermediate and the advanced photographers.Beginners will like it as well but its sheer size mightdiscourage inexperienced photographers. This is THE book any aspiring u/wphotographer should have in his personal library.

Jim Church's NikonosSystem Handbook would be a comparable good choice for the beginners.

Anew edition is coming soon. ... Read more
