Housing: MDX-5D Mark III ver.2
Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mark IV
Lens: 50mm compact macro
Strobe: YS-D2
Location: Minamata City, Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan

This is a scene of a Himetatsu birthing in the sea in Minamata City. Although the scene was shot in the dark sea, I appreciated the fact that the strobe's dial surface tells me the position of the strobe by its color and the fact that it glows, making it easy to tell at a glance which position the strobe is in. The housing has a shoe on the top so I was able to shoot with the red light on.

A school of Japanese butterflies photographed in the ocean of Okinawa. I tried to capture the great density of the fish. The way the light from the strobe rotates is unique to the YS-D2, and the light reaches all four corners evenly and evenly. I like it very much because it reproduces colors beautifully.

Encountering

Lens: 8-15mm fisheye lens
Strobe: YS-D1

A whale shark I encountered during the interview. I remember swimming frantically in excitement, moved by the sudden appearance of the shark. The compactness of the housing and port was a big help in this situation. The dials are easy to operate, so I was able to capture precious scenes in a short period of time.
