Lomography and Underwater Photography As lomographers, you are encouraged to take a lighthearted approach to your photography, and use techniques such as over-saturated colors, off-kilter exposure and blurring. This attitude works for digital camera as well and it applies even in underwater environment. If you take a lighthearted approach in using this camera, you may be able to obtain some imperfect but fascinating pictures in your snapshots. For best results, please use the default 5.0 MP setting for photo taking. The picture quality at the default 5.0 MP (2560 x 1920) is stable and vivid. When the interpolated 12.0 MP mode is chosen, picture quality is sacrificed for the higher resolution. For video filming, the VGA video mode (no audible sound) (640 x 480 at 30fps) give good quality motion pictures.
