You're welcome. Incidentally the idea of "shake control", or whatever they call it, is often of no use whatever in water and little to no use above water because it is mostly very slow. Moreover if you're using a strobe underwater, and you should in many if not most circumstances, the strobe will freeze the frame anyway. I think you'll find that you'll turn that feature off more often than not, particularly underwater where things happen very quickly indeed. Although I've tried, I've yet to have a fish obey my command of "go back and pose again and/or bluddy well stay still will you!" That last particularly of Clown Fish.
