■Visibility and halation

Many floating substances such as microorganisms called marine snow, fine dust, rolled up sand and mud are floating in the water.
Many floating objects are reflected in the strobe light and appear in the photograph.
This is called halation.

To reduce halation, shoot in water with high visibility and low floating matter.

Also, be careful not to fly sand or mud with fins when taking a photo.


Halation

If you use a strobe built into a camera such as a digital camera, the flash light will be emitted straight, and causing halation.


When the flash irradiation angle is straight

Trouble due to halation can be reduced by using an external strobe and irradiating strobe light at a diagonal irradiation angle.
