There’s a different and vibrant world beneath the ocean surface. It is a world where we are treated to the diversity of marine creatures and the beauty of structures such as corals and rock formations. Not everyone gets to see this first-hand. However, photography has helped us freeze the richness of the seas in frame. But with water pressure threatening to wreck any camera, it pays to have Olympus Underwater Housings and Accessories in hand.
Olympus Underwater Housings
Protection starts with the underwater housing. Olympus has created a number of high-grade polycarbonate cases that fits their digital cameras. While smaller Olympus cameras will easily fit into bigger housings, doing so still puts the device at risk. Aside from the fact that you will not be able to utilize the buttons due to loose space, that same space can be penetrated by water easily. Thus, it is advised that the proper housing is used for every camera.
For example, you should use the PT-EP13 underwater camera

Nikon has released Firmware Version 1.01 for the D7200 DSLR which addresses a number of functional issues. One of the bugs it has fixed is the non-display of the camera’s Firmware version to “C X.XX L X.XXX” in the Setup Menu. It has also answered the issue of wrongfully displaying February 29th during leap years. The new Nikon D7200 Firmware has also removed the four seconds of static that is usually heard on audio recorded with external HDMI recorders during movie live view.
D7200 Firmware 1.01 has also solved the issue wherein exposure compensation fails to produce negative values when NEF (RAW) images are processed via the NEF (RAW) processing option in the Retouch Menu. However, you should save your camera settings because the Firmware update resets menu settings to “A X.XX”, “B X.XX”, “L X.XXX”, “D X.XX”, “L X.XX”, or the like. To do so, select Save/Load Settings from the Set-up Menu then press Save Settings to have it stored in a memory card. After the firmware update, do the
