    tips for correcting for wet lens distortion in editor?

    I have a new rig, a panasonic lx10 with nauticam housing and wide lens. It's very important that I correct the distortion from the lens, because my images are for 3D modeling of the surfaces I'll be shooting. I use On1 Raw 2018 for image processing, and there is a function to create my own...

Flat, even lighting is critical for my data collection. I've been reading about strobe position...

    Idea for superior regulator bag for cheap

    Background: I've been looking for a smarter reg bag for a while. I was seriously thinking about buying the Armor double reg bag, but the price is just too much for me. Really, the price of reg bags in general, at $40-60USD has always seemed nuts to me. I have three reg bags, but never paid for...

    Looking for info re: Atomic X1 Blade fin

    I am interested in this fin, but find little about it anywhere online. Does anyone have it? I'd really love to know if it's any good at frog kicking and back kick, and the length of the fin itself. Thanks.

    SOLD Hollis F1 fins, like new, size regular

    These are nice fins, super powerful, good for all kicking styles, but they're a little heavy for my SM configuration. They've been in the ocean about 5 times, in the pool maybe another 5 times. I actually forgot I had these as they've been sitting in my garage for two years. Size "regular" -...
