Abstract :
Still cameras and television cameras are used separately and in concert to produce underwater images. A hybrid camera has been built that has the film and the electronic imager sharing the same optics. The camera has been successfully used in the field for high-quality remote macrophotography from submersibles and ROVs (remotely operated vehicles). The design and construction of the camera and techniques for use are described
