Christine,

Pics in todays paper showing scenes from the west country suggest any members from that area need underwater housings.

Perhaps some time to look at minimum focus performance indoors in the dry.

Very shallow dof as expected, but it does show excellent detail in the zone of sharpness.

After your other pics I did not really expect anything else though.
