    Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

    The Nova arrived too!! Fitting seems spot on, just tried at home. But they messed with the boots as I ordered neoprene socks and it came with some sort of boots, but not the tech ones they advertise as they don't have the compressor strap. Anyone had the same issue? The boot fits me fine, but...

    Review Seaskin Nova drysuit

    I also got the email from Seaskin with the shipping information. 25 days ahead of the original schedule, quite cool! Looking forward to try it out!

    Sony RX100 VII Underwater Camera Review

    Anyone knows what makes this model not compatible with the RX100 M6 Nauticam housing? I contacted Nauticam before and they told me: 'We haven't built this as a standard part available in our catalog, but I can probably set this up with a service center as a custom job.' Is something that you...

    Lab Tests with RX100 M6

    During this Covid situation I've got some time to test the camera settings with 2 nauticam diopters and settings. It may save you some time underwater knowing what to expect in advance... I'll keep updating with other tests when I have time...

    Garmin Descent MK2

    The MK1 without AI was a very nice smart/dive watch and I can see many potential buyers with money that don't care about AI or they will use it as a backup. Same for the MK2 without transmitter. But the transmitter will cost at least 300 bucks on top of the MK2... Do you think will have many...

    Garmin Descent MK2

    The community has been moaning for an MK2 with AI for months and expecting PPS standard. Given that Garmin is new in the field, wouldn't be a bit dumb to develop a new communication standard when AI is not yet 100% accepted by the diving community?? instead of using PPS or at least some of the...

    Garmin Descent MK2

    Looks pretty similar to me... Even the screws are in the same position as the PPS. If you look at the Aqualung model, the shell is a bit different than the Shearwater, different pattern. Let's have some hope...

    Experience with A6XXX for macro?

    Thanks all for clarifying. I was really tempted to go for an A6XXX but I can't see much justification at the moment. Probably better image quality but I don't need that if is not giving me some extra flexibility with the diopter. Seems the same issues with both systems. You can check my work...

    Experience with A6XXX for macro?

    Hello, I'm currently using an RX100 M6 and very happy with the overall results, specially for macro stuff combined with the Nauticam CMC-2, but given the size of the housing, I've been tempted to explore the option of A6XXX but I would like some inputs from other divers using a similar system...

    rx100 vi or vii

    Hi Lulazz, You know there's very small difference between the RX100 and A6000 in terms of overall setup size? The housing is almost the same (Nauticam)... And you have ports for macro and wide angle as well (if you want only WA, maybe the M5 is a better option)... Anyway, back to your question...

    Sony RX100 model/version differences

    I think the most significant feature of the latest models is the change of zoom range. M6&7 have 24-200mm lens, while the previous ones are 24-70mm M3-M5, aldough faster (better). Another consideration is that the housing for older models does not have interchangeable port, simplifying your...

    Any RX100 VII field reports w/ Nauticam?

    Nauticam advertises the N50 port with the bayonet system, claiming that you can easily swap the WWL-1 with the CMC-1 diopter (you can get the bayonet adapter for the Inon and CMC-1, or just screw them directly to the port). You can consider to test the CMC-1... Is very powerful and you can...

    Any RX100 VII field reports w/ Nauticam?

    Well, I would suggest you to go for the new Nauticam wide angle designed for compact cameras (WWL-C)... Apparently is designed to work with 24mm lens... Also smaller and a bit cheaper and has the float incorporated... If I had to buy one now, I would definitely go for that one instead of the...

    Any RX100 VII field reports w/ Nauticam?

    Thanks AlMitch Yes, must be 8cm otherwise no focus. that octo was quite small, something like a mouse. For WA I'm using the Nauticam WWL-1 and the short port, but the Inon you have should also work. If you're getting Nauticam housing, you need the short port in order to use the wide angle...

    Any RX100 VII field reports w/ Nauticam?

    I have the RX100 M6 with the nauticam setup, including the flip and the CMC-2 diopter. I can tell you that you can do crazy super-macro stuff with that combination. The diopter allows you do full zoom (200mm) as far as you stay at 8cm from the subject (you must stay at that distance, otherwise...

    RX100 m6 Nauticam N50 short port

    Hello, I've been using the RX100 m6 with the standard port and I would like to get the N50 short port for some wide angle. Now the question comes... I see two different options from nauticam, the port with bayonet integrated #38703 (can't be removed) and another with M67 thread #38701. Is...
