I have not had my SeaLife camera in the water yet - not even in the pool - but will soon give it a try both in the pool and the Gulf. I will look up the Canon S110, actually now that I think of it my son has a Canon - can't remember which - that he doesn't use much...maybe I could get away with...
wow - have to say replies to posts here come really fast - thanks! The "air brake" analogy is a good one. I was thinking doubling my weight was a little much - and since I've been diving with 12 pounds in fresh water wasn't really looking forward to diving with 24! As the water is warm here...
I've been diving in fresh water with 12 pounds (husband uses 4) - once I get past that 10-15 feet mark I usually don't have any problems accidentally floating up - so far 30' is the deepest we've been and we've not yet been in saltwater (that trip is coming up soon). I have been equalizing even...
As I've mentioned in other threads my husband and I got certified last September - since then we've made several trips to dives lakes and a river (and cleaned the bottom of a friend's pool :)) In the next few weeks we will be doing a "rig dive" in the Gulf of Mexico - plan to descend on a line -...
I'm new too - finished PADI course September 2013 - since then husband and I have been to lakes and rivers to dive - I have problems with my ears so much descend very slowly for at least the first 10-15 feet, I also have problems descending. I can't sit on the bottom of a pool without floating...
going to have to watch the videos - I seem to have a lot of trouble between the surface and about 10-15 feet - after that if I stay down there it's not a big deal - just lightly blow and I hear a "pop". I seem to have trouble in one ear more than the other - but that ear is different on each...
I'm a new diver - and a bit of a nervous diver - so what everyone has said seems to make good sense - I probably do hold too much air in my lungs and my husband has said I'm moving my feet - but I don't realize it - so next time I'll think more about those things. I tend to be very buoyant as...
I don't know about the 9500 - I have two Coolpix aw100 - one I bought several years ago before I took SCUBA lessons it is rated to go down about 30' without any housing - I bought a newer one a couple years ago when husband and I decided to take SCUBA lessons - same camera but it is rated to go...
thought I'd tag this onto this thread since it's basically the same question - hope that's ok:
I'm new to diving and love taking pictures so of course taking underwater pictures is on my list of things to do. Husband and I started out having 2 Nikon Cool Pix "underwater" cameras - first is...
Hello All,
I'm new to diving and new to the forum - hubby and I got certified last year on our 31st anniversary. We've made a few dives on our own - but just in lakes have not yet gotten into the ocean. Look forward to getting to know members here and getting good information and advice.
