Paul Schlemmer decided to write an X-E2 review for his very first blog post… and he tested the camera underwater. So he packed his brand new X-E2 into the Aquapac 451 (price&product images) and dived into the water.

The result is an underwater review with some stunning images as the one above. I’d say it’s a good start for a first blog post. Now let’s make it even better, stop by his blog here and check out his review.

“The housing luckily really is waterproof and It worked like a charm with a great X-E2. It flows in the water, which doesn’t sound like much, but paired with a bundled carrying strap it’s kinda sweet feature and you have one thing less to worry about in the field. Another fact I didn’t know about: Water is acting like a 1.5ish teleconverter to your focal length, so I’ve spent most of my time on 18mm/2.8 around 2000-4000ISO and 1/80-1/125s shutter speed. I expected a worse lighting conditions there, so nothing to complaint about- Fuji X-E2 holds these ISOs pretty well and at the 18mm it focuses surprisingly good&fast even underwater.”

There is also a youtube video about this underwater adventure here.
