Grettings - Title says it all ... I've been to Socorro early December and experienced really mild air temps. Not expecting that in mid-February. Anyone been there at that time, or have a link to weather averages? Plenty of water temp data, and I'm fine with that, but topside? Thanks in advance!

PolarPro offers NO info on what settings for the GoPro 10 will yield the best results. Talking about their red filter in deep blue water. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Greetings - Off to Socorro, second time, next week. In all my diving never traveled with a cell phone. I need to have Mexico/US communication this time. Can I get a prepaid SIM card at SJD for my unlocked Android phone? TIA!

Just upgraded(?) from GP5 to GP10 for my upcoming (second) trip to Socorro. Candidly, I don't want to invest the time and learning curve in something like DaVinci Resolve to process my vids after the trip. I'm fine with 'decent' results for me, friends and family, and maybe a coupla YouTube...

Greetings - When I got my current Hero 5, it was necessary to remove the stock lens protector by twisting it off to load the camera into the UW housing. Due to nerve damage in my hand, I couldn't/can't do that, so I bought an aftermarket housing that didn't require removing the protector first...

A company offering Rx gauge reader lenses says they offer them for Mares X-Vision 'OLD MODEL' and 'NEW MODEL.' Is there a difference in the lens size/shape? My X-Vision has 'DIN 7877B' on it ... does that help determine old vs new? And what exactly IS the difference between old and new? Thanks...

Greetings all - I tried to do this a few years back, didn't happen, trying again now. I have a relative, and a free bed, a mile south of Commercial Ave in Lauderdale, just off the Waterway. If I have a car and my dive gear, how far north do I need to go to find high-quality day boat diving in...

Greetings - I thought I posted this before, but I can't find it after three searches. Anyway, I'm in Tucson for a year, and looking for access to open pool sessions just to blow bubbles and check out camera and dive gear. I'll need someplace that can provide tank, weights, and water. Bigger...

Greetings all - The title is pretty self-explanatory ... does anyone know of any dive shows/exhibitions in Phoenix this year? Thanks!

There is a link on Wetpixel ... http://wetpixel.com/articles/waow-liveaboard-severely-damaged-in-fire ... to a video posted on Facebook ... ... 'purportedly' showing the liveaboard WAOW totally engulfed in flames. The boat was at Manokwari. Apparently no injuries to crew, and no guests...

Here's my old Nikon D5100, which I got used, with no accompanying accessory cords. Now I need to get a cord(s) and/or adapter(s) from here to my Android tablet, which I believe is officially called 'USB Micro B.' Anyway, what is the name of this type of USB port? If someone has any suggestions...

OK, sad story first ... I just went to put a new battery in my Oceanic Veo 250, and when I started to take the back off, I noticed a crack in it. Bummer! So I thought it was worth a try to dab a little super glue on it. I put some alcohol on a cotton swab to clean my greasy fingerprints off of...

OK, there has to be a part, or parts, to mate these two together ... but I'm not finding it! Bonus points if the solution is under $50. Any solutions? Thanks!

Greetings all ... I just upgraded from a GoPro 2 to a Hero 5 Black, and will be taking my first dive trip with it in six weeks. I'm trying to travel as lightly as possible, as I'm doing 6 weeks on land in Indonesia as well as 2 weeks of diving. I would prefer not to have to buy a whole handful...

Greetings all ... I'll be spending some time in Albuquerque. I'm looking for any LSD or other organization that has periodic open pool sessions where I can just blow bubbles as I check out my camera and dive gear to see if it's all operational. I know the Blue Hole exists, but I'm not geared up...

Greetings all - I'm considering a week or so of budget diving based in Amed in late September. I've done hotel/resort-based trips in Tulamben and Padang Bai before, and I'm not interested in basing in either of these places this time. What I'm looking for is ... A well-run budget homestay...

Greetings, all ... I've been to Indo seven times in the last ten years, but max 29 days per trip. I hope to come for most of September and October this year, and I'm assuming I still have to apply in advance for a visa to cover that. I'm looking for some clear direction for the process. Can...

I ran across this on Facebook. Papua Explorers will take on two DM interns for 6 months. The program includes a strong accent on marine ecology, a product, I'm sure, of Arnaud, the French marine biologist who is also the assistant head of the dive operation. He's a pretty interesting character...

OK, the thread title is admittedly a bit inflammatory ... but when I look at this web page ... Natãraja - Pirates' Bay Cruising ... and see 'spearfishing' included in the trip description, it makes me feel a bit, umm, inflammatory myself. I've never heard of this company, or any of their...

Greetings - Simple question ... looking for an authoritative reply on the best season for hammerheads in Banda. If you have done this personally, when did you go, what dive op did you use, and were you satisfied with your trip there? Thanks!
