The Underwater Photographer Summary

The Underwater Photographer: Digital and Traditional Techniques by Martin Edge (Freelance lecturer in underwater photography and regular columnist for all major diving magazines)

A superb hand-on manual containing a wealth of underwater tips, hints and advice - all beautifully illustrated with brand new, full colour images.

Martin Edge, a leading authority on underwater photography, will help you capture stunning effects using his popular 'think and consider' system - offering a heightened awareness and understanding of the subject matter, lighting and environment to take the perfect picture. Practical examples take you step-by-step through the basic techniaques from photographing shipwrecks, divers, marine life and abstract images to taking photographs at night and 'dual lighting'.

In 1999 the late Jim Church, guru of underwater photography, said: 'As a member of the new generation of underwater photography writers, [Martin has] set a standard that will only be surpassed when [he writes] a third edition.' Here it is, we hope you enjoy it.

The Underwater Photographer Reviews

The Underwater Photographer is a third edition, but it has been so thoroughly revised to include digital techniques that it could have easily justified a new title...The Underwater Photographer is seriously comprehensive and will clearly serve as a faithful reference manual. But the author's enthusiastic, personal and accessible style make it easy reading. Technical issues are dealt with thoroughly but reassuringly free from jargon, and even if it gets a bit technical, you can always skim through the heavy stuff and skip to Martin's personal recommendations, to instantly improve your shots...In conclusion, this book is very impressive and as up to date as a work of this magnitude could hope to be. In short, if you are an underwater photographer and want to improve your images then I recommend buying this book - Alex Mustard, www.wetpixel.com

DIVE MAGAZINE PUBLICATION OF THE YEAR!
This year we reckon you had more top-quality publications than usual from which to choose, and the three finalists were each the sort of volume you might treasure as a work of reference.
In its third edition, The Underwater Photographer has evolved to become almost a standard work of reference. Martin Edge has developed his writing skills over the years, and we recommend this volume for anyone pursuing the now-less-than black art of underwater photography, especially with digital image-gathering in mind.

'Martin gives valuable practical advice... in this compelling, valuable reference.'
Stephen Frink, Rodale's Scuba Diving

The book underwater photographers have been dying to get their hands on...anyone interested in taking up underwater photography would benefit from reading this book.
Professional Photographer Magazine

Martin assumes the reader has a basic knowledge of underwater photography, and so pitches at the intermediate skilled, but still allows the book to be accessible to the novice and makes a point of highlighting the many stumbling blocks and errors to taking decent snaps that beginners encounter...As well as the basics, Martin includes all the technical know-how to keep the experienced underwater photographer interested. And for anyone not yet seduced by the underwater photography bug, this book is enough to get you hooked - and coming back for more. - Media SportDiver, June 2006

The third edition is a hands-on manual containing underwater tips, hints and advice. It provides information to help readers obtain professional results, and has been rewritten (with new, full-color images throughout) to provide in-depth coverage of the latest digital techniques and equipment. - Dive Training, June 2006

..let us just say that this is THE best underwater photo technique book on the market... PERIOD! - DIVER magazine

What he (Martin Edge) does not explain in this truly outstanding book is how you put it down (to go diving) once you start to read! Truly a top pick for any underwater photographer - Asian Diver Magazine
