    Boat strike fatality - Fiji

    My gues it is a type, it should have said injuries to the HEAD. That would make alot more sense. BUt what do I know. I guess you could die from a hand injury if it is severe enough, and treatment is delayed.

    Things you've found under water

    I managed to find a huge anchor on a regular dive this year WE had swam off, away from the designated dive sight , looking for something different, and lo and behold we did find it. When I got back to the dive boat I asked the crew about it, and they had no idea about it. I drew them a map to...

    Unidentified Growth - Please Help

    What are the dimensions? The Conch things are small. A type of shark also lays a case like that but it is larger, like 12 inches long and maybe 3-4 inches in diameter. Don;t recall the name of the shark, I also found them on the bahamas. I used to have pics but lost them on my old computer...

    Inon D2000 problems

    After going on a dive trip far far away last month, I found out that I could not turn off the spoting light, no matter what I did. I had never had any issues with it before this. Never been flooded, or dropped. It usually pulsed for the correct time, then shut off, or stayed on if the switch...

    WTB a funtional Fuji Fine pix F810

    My f 810 has started giving me trouble and the camera shops won't touch it any more, so rather than buy a whole new case and camera, I am in search of a FujiF 810 that works. If any one has one, I am looking to buy. Thanks

    Problem with an Inon D-2000 Type

    I couldn't agree more. But she seems to have trouble getting the concepts down, even though she has been through a few classes prior to this one. She decided to take this class with a few female friends in order to get it down better. I spent a lot of time patiently talking to her about...

    Problem with an Inon D-2000 Type

    I am just not understanding why some people think one way and others think the other. It makes sense, it would work based on my readings, but I keep being told by foks who have pretty damn good credentials for underwater photography. I have no idea why, but I do know my wife is kinda a point...

    converting to a S95

    Still having issues with STTL and the S95. I posted it over in the strobe section. The instructor my wife has in Sulawesi right at this moment is telling her that STTL does not work between the D2000 and the S95. I want to prove them wrong, as I am pretty certan it does work. I tried it at...

    Problem with an Inon D-2000 Type

    I have a similar issue , not with the fiber optic part, but the STTL/TTL setting while using a Canon S95. I was told I could have the flash slaved via the sync cord, usiing the STTL etting if I recall right. My wife is on a trip right now, and taking lessons, she says they told her the D2000...

    converting to a S95

    Plus , I still need to know about the lenses, and this combo. I am certainly willing to learn from anyone on this subject. So just to make sure I am understanding correctly, your saying that all this time I could have used STTL, or TTL?? with the F810? That certainly would piss me off as I...

    My D2000 has the following settings. OFF, STTL, Low, auto, M, Full. on the Left side control knob. The right side knob has TTL , a band of manual settings above and a band below TTL to darken settings. I have been told to use it in manual mode with the F810 set up.

    Air is not an ideal gas?

    "does it make a meaningfull difference?" No. not in real life..I would atribute your higher SAC rate during the first few mins to the effort it takes to get set up and into the water, plus cooling effect of water on a usually warmer tank. Once in youget in and calm down, you exert yourself...
