Abstract

This paper concerns a simple, underwater camera which in use is operated flooded with water. All of its parts including lens, shutter, and photographic film are exposed to and operate in direct contact with the water in which the camera is immersed. As the paper progresses, I'll first describe the camera, then show some underwater photographs made with it, and finally discuss some problems we had at the beginning of its use and tell how we overcame the problems.
