    Fisheye FIX for the S90

    They lifted the photos from the Fisheye website. (They're only linked on the Japanese website for some reason, but the model numbers are clear, or Google can translate) http://www.fisheye-jp.com/works_lens/index.html Everything we have heard from Fisheye and from Ryan at Reef Photo has said...

    problem with wide-agle lens

    They work fine. You just have to bump the zoom a little. This is common.

    Fisheye FIX for the S90

    I'm not familiar with the ST mount, personally. Perhaps the folks at Reef could advise you on this one... I haven't seen a single post mentioning the ST mount in any thread on the S90 I've read. (and I think I've read them all)

    Necklace advice?

    There are plenty of threads on the topic, and I'm not in the mood for a debate when there have already been so many others preserved for posterity. If you're curious about other people's reason, the search function works quite well.

    GUE Fundamentals with Steve Millington -- Class Report

    It's hardly an issue at this point, considering I have yet to manage to pick up my doubles wing from Steve, let alone get it repaired, so no worries. *chuckle*

    Necklace advice?

    My point was simply that there are groups of people who agree with you, and just as many equally-educated folks who disagree, so the reader should make an informed decision about which camp gets their vote. That is all.

    GUE Fundamentals with Steve Millington -- Class Report

    Congrats again, Nicole! :) Are you plowing forward to prep for T1 or should we talk about getting my tanks back at some point? LOL

    Contacted by manufacturer about our website

    If that's the case, how does it work on eBay, and how are you supposed to describe the product you're trying to sell?

    Necklace advice?

    That's your opinion. There are quite a few others, including some (but not all) GUE instructors, who have studied the same information and decided that's it's better to be able to get the reg out when you need to (on purpose) and reject the zip tie method for that reason. Point being, viewed...

    Whats with ankle weights?

    Some of us use Slipstreams and buoyant wetsuit booties instead of rockboots, and still don't need ankle weights. I've definitely come across a few divers who fell into the unusual "actually do need ankle weights" category, but I firmly believe that the vast majority of people wearing ankle...

    Canon G11 versus S90 battery life?

    I got two dives out of one battery this past weekend. One dive was about 80 min, the other was about 45, but I only used the camera for 30 min at best. In general, though, I make it a practice to swap batteries between dives every time. It's not that difficult to do... you'll need at least...

    Fisheye Fix S90 housing and camera bouyancy

    Flotation attached to strobe arms is the most common way to address the issue of a heavy camera rig. This is common with ALL aluminum housings (and some larger plastic ones, too) ... the combination just gets very negative once you start piling on strobes, arms, handles, trays, focus lights...

    Coiled clip for accessories question

    Coil lanyards are great for cameras where you will have the camera in your hand 90%+ of the time, or lights when, similarly, they will be in your hand the majority of the time. They don't hold the light/camera super close when not in use, however, so they're not best if it's only an...

    problem with wide-agle lens

    I suspect that lens is made to work with more than one model of camera. On some it works perfectly as you would expect, and on others it will have vignetting unless you zoom in a notch or two. Very common with wide angle lenses. It's not a problem with the lens or with the camera, just a...

    Necklace advice?

    Agreed. The homemade ones can be assembled in a couple of different ways with differing levels of grip, ranging from "death grip, that sucker will break the reg before it lets go!" to "pops out if you pull too hard on it", while the prefab ones seem to range from "just barely secure" to "falls...

    Fisheye FIX for the S90

    Sorry, the Fix housing has no threads that a normal adapter fits. The only threads are on the outside of the lens tube, so their adapter threads onto it, which then allows the attachment of one of their lens mounts: AD or 67mm would work best, except you're still stuck buying one of their...

    Trimming neck seal @#$#$%#&^*@!

    I know some people who recommend scissors (MUST be good sharp clean with perfect edges!), but I know a lot more who strongly recommend against them. Just too variable. A rolling cutter's razor edge really is the best, most reliable method. And they're not expensive... so why fight it and take...
