Great show... Diver's D\Lyte is really great with the new formula... it's gonna go places with divers.

It was a great day of diving FUN. Looking forward to the 2011 Treasure Hunt on June 4th, 2011

We've completed our testing of the LED lights for video and found some interesting results. While we didn't test all lights available, there is a huge difference in results depending upon your budget. The Ikelite ProV8 lights turned out to provide the best value in LED lights. We used them in...

We tested the RED LED light on a night dive and found some interesting results when directing a lobster who is already out walking... they actually did follow the light. Other fish didn't seem so interested or impressed with the red colored LED light. We did use H20 gear on many dives and...

We're back from the testing dives....... WOW what an experience. The results won't be finished for a few more weeks as we've got some other stuff going on. What will surprise everyone are the results of our 'opinion' survey and what regulators seemed to outperform others. Remember, this was...

OK, I've located the camera and now it appears I might have the Ikelite TTL Strobe assembly to build the entire system. If we get all of the components together, our price should be right for a complete starter for underwater digital photography. The best part will be that the 5.0 MP shots...

Hey Mattboy, We're just doing some reviews and as you've pointed out, regulators are marketed to the extreme. There are many really great performers out there, and we are going to test several to see if we find any surprises. We'll see what the results are after the dives next week in...

From the old 'Conshelf' days of Aqualung (US Divers) some of the changes were so slight. I remember a dive shop owner buying new decals for his old regs so that students would buy the newer models. The Titan design reminds me of that with many of the newer models 'looking and feeling' like the...

Great input from everyone. We've proven the impact of the diver's bubbles when we recently used rebreathers. It was like if we could sneak right up and observe the reef activities without frightening the fish. Of course, we normally don't use rebreathers when focusing on shallow reef...

This might be a great match... I do not have the camera as it was stolen on a 'land' vacation. I agree it is one of the best cameras but in that generation very large in size. Now, I see that big lens as an advantage for underwater use. At any rate. I do not have the camera. Just the...

Ikelite Digital Model #6111.17 for Sony DSC-F717 camera. Housing includes internal circuitry for the TTL strobe (not included). Complete Housing as shown in photos $75.00 or best offer (plus shipping & handling).

peterbj7... not so sure we need to know about those 'recreational' regulators at 400 ft. But appreciate your input. When I was commercial diving with SCUBA, we had shallow gear 0-60', mid-deep gear 50-150', and deep gear 150+ ... of course, we never got to pick as we were told what gear we'd...

Great comments here. One thing that is obvious for everyone is to know the difference in MWB and Auto and when it makes a difference. I prefer to set the white balance with a card but have used sand and the side of a boat. I'm trying to decide how much the visibility variation effects the...

Great job Mike, what editing program are you using? Your transitions were good. Also, what was the average visibility? It looked like you made the best of some so-so visibility. The lights work great for you.

Good advice. When you build your arms, take a few pictures to share. The Ike pop arms are nice but you'll want some flotation in your package. I like alum tubing and with powder coating you can really make some home made parts look great. Plus there won't be another one like it in the rinse...

Setting the housing discussion aside... the D90 will provide you with the same quality results as the D300. The few additional features will most likely not be missed by any photographer that actually learns all of the functions of their camera. For the underwater photographer, the heavy duty...

Red LED flashlights... I've never tried them with videography, but the red light does bring the lobsters right out of their holes.

Has anyone tried using a Red LED light? We're going to try these out in a few weeks in Roatan... will report on the results.

Tricia, we're looking forward to seeing some of your pics. Hope your trip was fantastic! I recently picked up a Nikon Coolpix L11 with Ikelite housing which was never used. I'm going to use it as a backup and match it up with an Ikelite strobe I have. From what I see, it will probably do...

Night Diving with video lights in interesting because the lights attract 'sea bugs' like a porch light in the woods. We'll be using some Red LED lights for our main lights and should be interesting to see the impact on the critters. Some divers have said that they use Red LED lights to attract...
