Using a tripod, a remote shutter release, and a lens with image stabilization will all help to prevent camera shake.

Multiple choice

Which of the following shutter speeds is NOT commonly used in underwater photography?

  1. 1/125

  2. 1/250

  3. 1/500

  4. 1/1000

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Shutter speeds commonly used in underwater photography range from 1/125 to 1/500, depending on the desired effect and lighting conditions. 1/1000 is typically not used as it can result in overexposure, especially in bright underwater environments.

Multiple choice

Which of the following ISO values is NOT commonly used in underwater photography?

  1. ISO 100

  2. ISO 200

  3. ISO 400

  4. ISO 1600

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

ISO values commonly used in underwater photography range from ISO 100 to ISO 400, as they provide a good balance between image quality and noise levels. ISO 1600 is generally not used due to its high noise levels, which can degrade image quality.

Multiple choice

Which of the following white balance settings is NOT commonly used in underwater photography?

  1. Auto White Balance

  2. Incandescent

  3. Fluorescent

  4. Underwater

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Common white balance settings used in underwater photography include Auto White Balance, Underwater, and Fluorescent. Incandescent is not typically used as it is intended for indoor lighting conditions, which are not encountered underwater.
