: Hi Roger, what were your underwater images like? Lots of bubbles? It would be
: fun to use the pool at the Olympics training facility at Colorado Springs.
: I was there once. They have a swimming pool with a big plexiglass window
: down below; they use it to analyze swimmers' strokes.

I haven't developed the underwater pictures yet. The Canon A-1 is auto focus so it was having a terrible time in the Sound Murk. I thought I'd taken 18 pictures. When I checked the camera it had only taken 3. So I stayed out for quite a while in an attempt to get more images. I'll be happy if just one turns out.

: It's hard to believe no one has captured a rolling kayak with an underwater
: camera. What are the limiting factors - low light, water clarity... ?

Ted is right about the water clarity. Last year I put the camera in the water by a jellyfish. The photo came out very flat. Water clarity had a lot to be desired. This year the water seemed clearer So I have some hope.

The low light was also a problem. I had 400 speed film. Should have used 800 or 1600 (see spendy). This year was more or less an expiroment. Next year I hope to have a better idea as to what I'm doing.

PS. You've got the biggest kayak I've ever seen. What is its capacity?
