Many people arrive in Lembeh with many different pieces of equipment to capture images of the tiny denizens of the muck. But which is the most appropriate for you? Obviously, I can’t answer that but i can show you some examples of what you can do with some different setups on the same subject. Today we went looking for Hairy Shrimp and Gayus and Paulus found a nice one about 3 or 4mm long holding a few eggs. Luckily we had brought 4 cameras:
Canon 5Dmk3 with 100mm lens
Canon 7D with 100mm lens
Olympus OM-D with 60mm lens
Canon S110
These 4 cameras are housed in Nauticam housings and make up our rental line up / staff cameras, and all used a subsee +10 diopter. I set up on the Hairy Shrimp and then tried my best to replicate the shots as closely as possible by switching through the cameras without leaving the subject. I started with the 5Dmk3 and im not happy with the picture, but the guide had gone off on an adventure with that camera and I didnt chase after them to get it back!
