    Shore diving the east side

    Hi there, I understand that in order to shore dive the east side, the winds and water need to be calm. I know there are plenty of ops who can guide us here but if we wanted to dive a few sites alone, what tips do you have? Are there any clear signs the conditions are unfavorable? Thanks for any...

    Sony RX100VA - suddenly choppy raw footage

    Umm so I think it was actually just my computer playing the files in a terrible manner for some reason. Suddenly the choppiness is gone. Thoroughly confused but no more issues.

    Sony RX100VA - suddenly choppy raw footage

    Been shooting UW video for days in Bonaire and have not switched settings. Shooting auto everything at 1080p/120fps. Footage has looked good every day and today my raw footage is off/choppy. I tried different batteries and both produced the same choppy footage that used to produce smooth...

    Reverse dive profile advice

    I plan on doing two shore dives in Bonaire on regular air. No Nitrox training for me yet, unfortunately. First dive should be max depth of 45 feet for around 45 minutes. I am hoping to follow that up with a 40 minute dive to 75 feet. For both dives, I can't imagine I am at max depth for more...

    Light battery makes noise emanate from charging block??

    Don't know exactly what that sounds like. I would not have thought anything of it, except for the fact that my other battery (regardless of which charger I use) does not make the charging block make this sound.

    Light battery makes noise emanate from charging block??

    No, it is the charger making the noise but it only makes the noise with this specific battery. It's weird to me.

    Light battery makes noise emanate from charging block??

    I have the two Hydra 5000S+ WSRU lights. When I charge one of my batteries, it makes a noise emanate from the charging block. The noise is not loud but it is noticeable and sounds almost like snow/white noise mixed with that of a generator. I did some trouble shooting between other batteries...

    Flat picture profile for UW video shooting?

    I have a Sony RX100VA. Going to Bonaire next month. I've only shot without flat picture profiles and I think it's turned out mostly well but areas where I want to color correct are difficult for me to do. Do you guys shoot flat? If so, any recommendations for profiles available on my camera...

    Understanding proper gas usage in regulator

    to summarize, I can switch back and forth between normal air and Nitrox (up to 40%) without any problem?

    Understanding proper gas usage in regulator

    I recently bought a full regulator setup for the first time. Looking through all of the manuals/documentation, something stuck out to me that I need clarification on: "Air used in SCUBA diving may contain minute amounts of flammable hydrocarbons that are considered safe to breathe. Over time...

    Bonaire underwater maps?

    One thing I forgot to ask! - I heard you should not bring your phone in your car with you as it could get stolen. How do you navigate/drive to the different sites and places on the island? Are there road maps with dive sties I can pick up?

    Bonaire underwater maps?

    I'm heading to Bonaire and I've read all the must go to sites and stuff like that but what I haven't seen is any in-depth information on diving the sites. What I mean by that is how far out do I need to swim for each site? Do I go straight out or to the left or right? How far in either...

    Tips for Channel Islands video shooting (greenish water)

    Thanks Mike, this was posted a few months ago so I already bought two Kraken 5000s with the remote switch. I decided against purchasing any filters. I did just purchase a WB card as well. New situation though - If I do a custom WB underwater with lights off, turning them on may cause them to...

    50 dives in the Philippines, 1 short video

    What picture profile did you use? Any? I always shoot something flat on land but underwater I've been trusting the camera when I have good natural lighting. Did you do a lot of post work on color?
