I will also be teaching a three hour seminar, Getting Ready for your Close-up from 2-5 PM on Saturday November 15 th at a cost of $39.95 which includes the cost of admission to the show. The seminar will cover all aspects of macro and close-up including the use of tele-converters, diopters, extension tubes, lens selection, lighting choices and much much more. I will have an assortment of the latest equipment on hand and space will be limited. I can be contacted at phil@divechronicles.com for further information and reservations.

Just received my e-mail this evening from Brad, with details on free admission, based on my attendance last year. Now, it only I can get myself home in time for this show.

I'm a little confused about where the show is this year. Can someone tell me where it is being held?

Hi, will Scubaboard be there this year? I don't see them on the list of vendors. Anyone else going? I'm on the fence about it because it's a 2 1/2 hour drive and I'm not so sure it's going to be worth it, the website kinda stinks (uninspiring). I haven't heard much or any buzz on this forum about it. I usually love to attend any Scuba events going on in Florida.

I'm going. It is very poorly advertised. I wouldn't drive far to see it, but there's going to be a cold front and no diving, so what the heck...

I am going to the show on Saturday then doing a dive Sunday morning.Heck I am driving 4 1/2 hours from Spring Hill Florida.Can't wait to see some of the SB members It would be good to put a face with the post.

Not only will ScubaBoard be there, but I will be at the booth most of the time! If you have cameras, PLEASE BRING THEM!!! We want the show to be documented, and I don't have one at the moment.

As a newer diver (certified for about a year now) I found the show very informative. I went to the show on Saturday and enjoyed the underwater photo session class and hearing Stan Waterman speak and show his video. Vendor's reps were there and were friendly and had a lot of information on new equipment. Lots of great ideas for dive vacations too! Job well done.
