Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could assist, I am looking to get an external set up for my Canon S120/housing and was wondering if anyone else has a S120 and what set up they have? Also if anyone knows a place in Australia (physical store in Victoria, otherwise online) who sell these type...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YEPRmLf2C74 My GoPro flooded on the previous dive :( so I had to use my Canon camera for photos and some video. Came out better than I thought it would have after basic editing.

Around end of December I was diving in Rickett's Point, Beaumaris on a shore dive. Had the GoPro in my pocket and looks like it has fallen out of my pocket at some point. Long shot but can always hope someone may have found it. It is also possible I didn't lose it there as I don't remember...

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has, or has used the canon housing for the Canon s120? I am more looking at potential issues it might have like the connector for zoom coming off (I know this can be an issue for the ikelite housing) or anything like that. Is it a worthwhile housing...

edit: never mind. All good now.

I want to go diving for my birthday which falls on a Friday. I would prefer to dive the Canberra if possible. Anyway I emailed Dive Victoria and they won't go on that date. I was wondering if there were any other dive operators who possibly would go out on that date? I have long been under the...

My partner and I are planning a GBR live aboard for August 2015 and we've come across the following three "better" priced operators in Taka, Divers Den & Rum Runner. We want to go out to the Outer Reef as we understand it is the better and less crowded of the diving and I think this might count...

Does anyone know what the oldest wreck to dive in the world is? I was browsing along potential wrecks in Victoria and saw we have some wrecks of ships sunken in 1905, but built in the 1800s and it got me thinking about other wrecks and how old they are? So does anyone know the oldest wreck in...

Hi all, Does anyone know of any companies who do 3 or 4-night liveaboard dive trips in the Greek Islands for a decent price. I've come across a few companies but they all seem to do it for 7-nights. If not, is it worthwhile visiting specific islands via ferry and doing day dive trips from each...

Starting in December I am doing my Divemaster and then my Instructors a month later all part of the same internship, so I get the on-the-job training. Anyway I am curious for those who are DMs and Instructors how you found the theoretical side of the course? I am not exactly sure what to...

We have a couple of days in Istanbul to kill and was wondering if there are any groups who do an overnight dive trip down to the World War I wrecks (or anywhere in Turkey)? We also have the option of staying in Cannakule before our tour ends and that is where the wrecks are (as I understand...

My round-the-world trip is taking me to Belize and I have heard the Blue Hole is one of the must-dive sites in the world. It looks amazing but from what (little) I have read there isn't too much to see unless you go real deep (that I am not willing to do) and that the main attraction is the cave...

We're going up to the Grampians over the long weekend and coming home via the Great Ocean Road and thinking we might try some diving somewhere along the Great Ocean Road. I did a quick search and found there seem to be some pretty cool shore dives in Apollo Bay, Port Campbell & Warnambool...

I need a general idea what a Divemaster earns in Australia. Whether it be per day/week/month or dive? I know it isn't much and I have searched but cannot find a satisfactory answer (that is one with numbers rather than 'not much'). I know they don't earn much at all. Even a ballpark figure...

Does anyone know the cost of diving the Dubai Aquarium? I've emailed them and looked online but can't find a cost (and they haven't replied). Specifically I am looking at doing the dive where you learn the photography/get a chance to take your own photos. Also, do you need to book in advance...

Planning a shore dive next weekend with some friends in Victoria, is it illegal to shore dive without Dive Flag? Would like to know so I can organise one if need be.

Let's say your diving at 20m and the colour around you is pretty much a deep green or blue for whatever reason taking any photo of any coral or marine animal is just them being green\blue with none of their colour. It happens, naturally. Would a flash/strobe help remove the green/blue and get...

First off, sorry for asking a question that has probably been asked many times and is a little annoying. Looking to get into the underwater photography side of diving. I have my gopro and I love the video but at some point I would love to get some photos of me and my partner underwater and the...

Howdy all, I am looking to go on a cray dive in a few weeks time down in Victoria and I was wondering if anyone has any advice on catching them? What equipment can/do you use, etc? I've never done it before so I don't expect to catch anything though I do have hope. So yeah any advice would...

Diving at Wave Break Island, Julian Rocks & South Solitary Islands - YouTube Was a nice trip, though 2 days were cancelled due to weather and visibility wasn't the greatest (it wasn't bad by any means). I do think I need to invest in a filter for my GoPro though. Enjoy.
