Epoque EHD-900Ai
At £199 all in (Cameras Underwater currently throws in a 2GB card for all the models listed here), the Epoque EHD-900Ai is the least expensive camera on review, but price alone doesn’t always reflect performance and capability. Photographically this
is an automatic point-and-shoot with no manual control over exposure or white balance but, for a beginner, sometimes less is more.
The build quality of the housing is robust, the overcentre closure catch is big and safe, and the ergonomics and operation of the push buttons are excellent. More importantly, however, external slave flashes can be triggered easily and there is a 55mm front filter
ring for attaching wide-angle and macro lenses and filters.
When choosing your first compact camera for underwater use, it is always difficult to really know how hooked you are going to become.
The beauty of the EHD-900Ai combination is that it can be expanded with accessories to suit your needs should you get the bug.
The provision of these features makes the Epoque EHD-900Ai a clear winner in terms of value for money.
