      Did you end up going to the Philippines? I am going to be in Cozumel from April 1st to the 30th and diving with Dive With Martin. What trip is the Philippines trip? Any room left on that one?

        Hi,

        Krazymad (below) posted about the Phillipines. Alas, I haven't been.

      Your internal diffuser, not hologram, seems to be what I'm looking for, but first things first, I can't figure out how to get the front off to get access to the reflector. I believe you post mentioned that DRIS started to glue the fronts on to prevent flooding. How did you get past the glue?

      Hi 3D Diver - I was reading your old post about your 3D GoPro setup with quad DRIS 1000 lights, specifically how you diffused the light. I'm getting ready for a trip to the Philippines and am trying to diffuse my DRIS 1000 light because its simply too bright and intense. Previously I've dove with two fingers covering the face to reduce the light intensity.
