Abstract
FOLLOWING the work of Veevers at Plymouth, we have been using cameras for some years for studies of sea-bed and mid-water life. These electronic flash cameras are suspended from a stationary or drifting research vessel, and operated either from the ship or by triggering at a set distance from the bottom. Our frogmen have also made studies of fishing gear and fish behaviour, though their work is limited to water of less than 10 fathoms depth and to conditions of full daylight.
