PADI
Digital Underwater Photographer

Picture
Underwater photography is one of the most popular diving specialties, and with so many underwater cameras to choose from, ​it has become easier and more fun than ever to capture images of your underwater scuba adventures. ​  
​
The PADI Digital Underwater Photographer course gets you going quickly, whether you use a point-and-shoot camera or a sophisticated dSLR like the pros.
Sign up - Underwater Photography Class
PADI (Junior) Open Water Divers who are at least 10 years old are eligible to take the Digital Underwater Photographer course.

Course Structure:
Class and Pool session may or may not be on the same training day, check with your instructor or Adventure Sports Newmarket representative.
After that has been completed, you need to do 2 Open Water Dives with a PADI Digital Underwater Instructor to finish the course.  Some folks dive with their instructor locally, some join their instructor on a day or weekend trip to an Ontario dive site (such as Tobermory, or Christian Island), and some prefer to complete their open water dives with their instructor on an away trip (such as our Aquacat Bahamas trip, Blackbeards Bahamas trip, Whale shark Yucatan trip, Cozumel, etc).  If you choose to go south there are many choices, visit our trip page!

Note: Excursion and away trips will incur extra expenses (boat charters, flights, etc).

What You Learn
Through hands-on training during two scuba dives and guidance from your PADI Professional, you’ll discover:

  • How to choose the right underwater camera system for you.
  • The PADI SEA (Shoot, Examine, Adjust) method for getting great shots quickly.
  • Principles for good composition of underwater images.
  • Practical techniques to take great photos with your digital camera.

Get credit! The second dive of this PADI Specialty Diver course may credit as an Adventure Dive toward your Advanced Open Water Diver certification – ask your instructor about earning credit.

Equipment
Beyond using basic scuba equipment, you’ll need a digital underwater camera and a computer or other device for downloading and viewing your images. We may suggest additional equipment and accessories depending on your camera system.

Getting Started
Come in to the shop to pick up your Digital Underwater Photography manual, and enroll in the course.  Study manual and complete knowledge reviews before class.

Course Schedule
  • Once you have picked up your Digital Underwater Photography manual, you will read it and complete the knowledge reviews at the end of each chapter.
  • In the classroom, we will go over the knowledge reviews, discuss questions and concerns, and give a presentation on underwater photography and its challenges with lots of visual examples. 
  • Pool session follows the classroom session (2 hrs)
  • Dive 1 - Open water dive to accomplish a set of objective and review with instructor.
  • Dive 2 - Open water dive to accomplish a set of objectives and review with instructor.
