What the Pro's Say About Us

 

From ‘Realm of the Pygmy Seahorse’

A book project is a daunting task, particularly when it is one’s first... Steve Warren was the first person who expressed his appreciation for my potential in underwater photography. I thank him for his genuine friendship. The pioneer underwater photographer, Colin Doeg, consistently succeeded in restraining my Mediterranean temperament with his good sense...

The Ocean Optics team in London: Andrew Bell, Matt Crowther, Andrew Pugsley, Sidarth Thaker, were in the unenviable position of trying to satisfy my photographic needs and supporting me in this field.

Constantinos Petrinos


From ‘The Diving Guide to the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia’

I would like to offer my thanks to Steve of Ocean Optics in London, UK for providing me with all the equipment and knowledge to achieve my objective within my water world and for patiently accepting the torture of my questions on their supplies. Thank you Steve for your valuable advice and knowledge shared.

Antonio Mancini


From ‘ The Underwater Photographer ’

My pursuit of underwater photography has depended on the help, support, advice and friendship of a number of people, and I would like to thank them all for helping to make the ‘Underwater Photographer’ so successful...

Steve Warren, Colin Doeg and all the staff of Ocean Optics, thank you for your continuous support.

While one finger presses the shutter on the camera, many hands support an underwater photographer. I am grateful to Steve Warren of Ocean Optics...

John Collins

This book is a result of the collective enthusiasm of a large team of people to whom I am in debt. For their practical help in the United Kingdom, I thank Steve Warren...

Steve Bloom


Most divers are well aware of the beauty and fragility of the marine environment and underwater photographers in particular often have a sympathetic understanding of fish behaviour and habitats - they have to, in order to get their shots! At Fish4ever, we’re campaigning with divers to create more marine parks in the world’s oceans and to prevent the appalling destruction wrought by industrial fishing. We’re therefore extremely grateful to Steve Warren and Ocean Optics for their support for our campaign, and we look forward to working together in the future.

From ‘Dive in Style’

There is so much that goes into this hobby that I could do no better than refer you to experts. Ocean Optics of London will give you totally unbiased advice, and while I am the first to look for a discount, this was one time I was happy to pay sticker price: they know their business and will give honest advice, even to the extent of losing themselves a sale.

Tim Simond


From ‘ The Art of Diving ’

I am particularly grateful to Ocean Optics, London, who supply and maintain all my underwater equipment.

Alexander Mustard


As an on land photographer Nick Meek was commissioned to do an underwater shot for Ericsson, the last of twelve shots for a worldwide campaign.

With no experience of underwater photography Steve at Ocean Optics showed us a wealth of options and helped us ascertain which equipment would be right for the job. He organized diving lessons and PADI courses for us and even helped us test the equipment in a dive pool. Thanks to Steve’s help the commission was a great success and has since been made into one of Europe’s largest posters, measuring 90m long at a Barcelona expo.
