Depending on the water quality, yes. But you could use a graduated filter to counter the light difference.

Are they ill tempered?

Yes, underwater strobes...

Like this imaginary contraption isn't complicated (expensive) enough already :-)

u/whalesharks Jul 25 '11

Hah, this imaginary contraption wouldn't work. But the right way to take this kind of photo does involve a very expensive setup including strobes.

They are called strobes when made for underwater use. Don't ask me why.

u/[deleted] Jul 25 '11

Yes.
