As Surf Camera expanded and grew customers wanted a single place to share their surfer shots and videos. The owner then invested in a new website with a community of Surf Camera users called Surfer Shot. In addition to the community and photo sharing he started up a surf store onto SurferShot.com.
By the time SurfShot.com was completed more waterproof cameras started coming out from different manufactures. This started confusing surfers as to which waterproof camera is best for surfing with.
The owner being an expert with all these different waterproof cameras knew it was time to start a review page to break it down for surfers to decide which waterproof camera is best for them.
The review page had grown into its own site so Scott turned it over into a new website, waterproofcamera-s.com.
Surf Camera History:
Surf Camera was founded by Scott Bishop in September 2005. Scott is a successful entrepreneur who has owned and operated an aviation company for the past 18 years.
With his surfing lifestyle living at the beach he realized that after 20 years of consistent surfing that he wasn’t alone in having less than a hand full of surf photos of himself on a wave, and they were all from the beach.
When he read about Pentax releasing the first waterproof digital camera he started developing the idea of attaching it to his wetsuit. He invented a way to attach it just under the left collarbone to where it didn’t hinder his surfing in any way.
These new waterproof cameras by Pentax, Olympus, Fuji, Panasonic, GE and Casio take breath-taking quality surfing photos and are very compact in size without the need for any bulky plastic casings.
Scott says the vainest people in the world are surfers. When he first paddled up into a crowded line up with his Surf Camera case invention on, every surfer in the water was curious as to what it was then asked him if they could get a photo of them on a wave.
With only the pros getting surf photos by professional swimming photographers from angles out in the water, Surf Camera is about to change all that and the course of surf history. |
