Ewa-Marine Housings - Half and Half Shots

Using the Ewa-Marine waterproof digital camera housing for taking half and half shots can be tricky since the camera and case are exposed to the warmth of the sun and the lower half of the camera body is in cooler water. This can cause some aggravating condensation conditions.

Here's a link to some information that may help you solve that problem and help you to keep that $1000 + in your wallet without dropping it on a high end solution that you really don't need. Check out the info in the FAQ section at Keep It Dry Case and try it out!

"WATER DROPLETS ON THE FRONT PORT: Whenever you wish to take a half & half photo; 1/2 of the picture under the water and 1/2 of the picture over the water level, you will find some drops of water sticking to the front port above the water level. To avoid this, rub the outside of the front port with a slice of apple. The fruit acid in the apple will break the surface tension of the water and stop the drops from forming. Depending on the water, salt or fresh, the application must be repeated after 3 to 5 minutes." Dont forget to use the silica moisture muncher packet in the housing as well.

Also, in the customer gallery, the stunning pic of the trout picking up a fly was shot by a professional photographer in a trout stream and he mentioned that "putting the air right out of your scuba regulator hose takes out any condensation."

I wanted to share this info for those who are looking for that perfect half and half shot or video clip!
