Re: Nikon 20mm 1.8 for white sharks?

should specify the camera (FF or crop), and the dome.

the dilemma with Guadalupe is you get some close cage passes, but often they're 10-30ft away.   The tendency of the operators to have narrower openings on the cages now makes the strobe arms a PITA, so going ambient is a lot easier and most of the time correct anyhow.

The more time you're willing to spend in the cage, the better your potential outcome.  But that can mean 2+ hour stints with a lot of dead time.

The other challenge to deal with is all of the bait fish that hide by the cages.
