If it's not the lake in my back yard, 4 hours to Okoboji Iowa or 8 hours to Bonne Terre, Table Rock MO or BeaverLake AK. Otherwise it's dive where the job takes me.

Reviewing doc... a suggestion is to public in PDF... it's easy to use a print to pdf like PDFCreator | Get PDFCreator at SourceForge.net

Anodizing looks nice... so does the fact job! Looks like DIYdiver is going to be the first to market with the 5 and 10A CC drivers, YEAH!

I had a 125 OC dives before switch to SCR. CCR is in the future somewhere but SCR met my requirements then and now.

ScubaPro KnightHawk XXL... I'm 3 inchs shorter same chest size

That's one benefit of the units, you'd have to decide if it is enough to justify the costs an troubles. No bubbles = marine life will let get closer, Photography is easier and it's quieter. SCR could do much the same at a lower cost but restrict you to OW recreational limits. But don't feel...

CCR training is specific to the model being used. There is also an intermediate step available with SCRs As Cave Diver says knowing where your interest are and the why's in important. There's some good info and additional forums specific to rebreathers on rebreatherworld.com.

MK17/MK25 with S600/S650/S700 are good choices You might want to consider the long term costs wrt parts and maintence and were the work will be done. If going through a LDS check to see what they carry.

Like I said, I was surprised... most excursions are just over priced wastes of time. As for OOA... yeah quite a few came up with 300psi or less and failed to signal half or 1000psi. But that's guided tours for ya.

Then you'd better plan based on the the worst case SAC between you and your buddy. Gas planning is going to vary based on the type of dive your doing.

Lol, they just couldn't get past the mode of transportation and ignored the ICE diving cert, Drysuit Cert, Cavern Cert... blah blah blah I still took my gear in the off chance... but ended up being an over dressed snorkler:dork2:

Did my first cruise two years ago and couldn't get the local dive shops in Alaska to work with me at all... Your coming in on what? *Click* Dived on the the HMS Rhone in Tortola last week with a cruise boat tour and was surprised at the good bounacy control many of the divers demonstrated...

No reason for anyone to yell about this after all your a student, in a class situation, PRACTICING new skills. Experience counts and as humans we tend to learn from mistakes more than success... at least mistakes we survive :shocked2: Keep on practicing and enjoy

You can always batch process if each photo requires the same adjustments. I got the 17-40 for pretty much the same reasons that the OP mentions so far. Lots of detail, no fisheye and still usable on land. Of course, while the lense is important getting enough light on target is I think a...

Everyone's already said wait until certified before spending the money and that's good advice. Advice is free :) but always opinionated I perfer to do business with the manufactures so when looking at gear check if the was manufactured by the brand on the label or "re-branded". Like most...

I'll leave the discussion wrt going beyond standards and buddy breathing to others. However pairing up of students is normal. If the father was taking a refresher course he was in fact only a student. As a student he is demostrating mastery of skills and not teaching other students. If this...

I use the 8" dome with the 17-40... haven't tried the 24-105 but will tomorrow when the camera comes back from cleaning. I don't recall an issue with it in the ike housing regardless of documentation. will check though

If I was to buy only once lense it would be the 24-105 L-Series. However, I dive with the 17-40 L-Series and perfer it landspace photos.

I'll finish my prototype video light today which is fixed focus with a single SST-50. (Final build will be quite different.) However, The SST-50 and SST-90 have a 120 degree absolutely smooth beam without reflectors or lens. I can't even discribe how the 50 floods a room with light though...
