Head to DIVE 2017 for first class photo & video inspiration
DIVE 2017 is just a matter of days away! If you’re a Diver who uses a camera or camcorder, you’ll want to make the PhotoZone a key part of your visit and indeed, you might find it hard to drag yourself away…
Head to the PhotoZone for the latest camera gear and specific advice, whether on hardware, software or technique. The PhotoZone will be packed with experts all weekend ready to offer one-to-one guidance and solutions to your photo and video needs. Set yourself new targets or simply enjoy the views of all the images on display. And don’t forget to vote – all visitors are invited to contribute to the judging of the annual British Society of Underwater Photographers’ Print Competition.
This year’s photo & video talks are on the nearby Centre Stage and the mission of all the speakers is to both inspire and inform your underwater image-making. Get your morning off to a great start at 9.50am with photo pro Mario Vitalini who shares his stress-free packing tips in The Travelling Photographer: kit essentials Within the Weight Limits. Scubaverse’s very own UWP Editors Nick & Caroline Robertson-Brown present The Bigger Picture at 11.10am – a guide to travel and wide-angle photography that is sure to get you champing at the bit to book your next dive trip.
In the afternoon on Saturday, star billing goes to Alex Mustard & Martin Edge at 2pm as they reveal previously Unseen Images, discuss experimentation and how to create exciting new work. Be sure to get your seats early for that one! Martin returns at the same time on Sunday for a solo presentation entitled Shots in the Shallows – exploring the pros and cons of shallow-water environments for underwater photographers.
Other speakers on the Centre Stage include Paul Colley, David Diley, Paul ‘Duxy’ Duxfield, Keith Hiscock, Ellen Kuylaerts, Jane Morgan, Saeed Rashid and Richard Smith. Take a look here for the full line-up.
