    Housing Ergonomics

    I'm in the market for a new housing. I'm at the point where I'm not really satisfied with the port selection on the Salted Line housing, given that SeaFrogs doesn't offer extensions for their ports (especially the domes). I'm either going to replace the Salted Line housing I have for my a6400...

    SeaFrogs housing compressing at depth

    Heyo fellow Sony peeps. I’ve been diving with my SeaFrogs housing for a few years, and I’ve started to notice some issues on my deeper dives. Basically what’s happening is on any dive deeper than ~60 ft, and most dives deeper than about ~40 ft, the back panel of the housing is compressing so...

    For Trade Two HP117s for two HP100s (Mid FL)

    Hey all, I have two Faber HP 117s, that I’m looking to trade for two HP100s. My tanks both have recent hydro + viz (Dec ‘22), and are currently filled with 32%. My only gripe is they are 8” diameter and don’t fit on the boats I regularly dove off of, so I’d like to downsize to 7.25” HP100s...

    Question SDI Solo Instructor in PBC

    Hey everyone, I’m looking for an instructor recommendation to finish out my SDI Solo course in PBC. I’ve completed the eLearning portion from SDI, but still need to do the skills and open water dives. I’m over in the Clearwater/Tampa area and have had 0 luck getting any of the SDI Solo...

    Question Tokina atx-m 11-18mm

    Any other APS-C users here have a chance to test out the newer Tokina atx-m 11-18mm f/2.8? I'm looking for a wider angle lens than my current options (Sony FE 28-70/3.5-5.6 and Sony FE 24-105/4G). I'm using a Salted Line 6xxx with the 6" dome port, so bonus points if you're also running that and...

    Question BHB nighttime access?

    HI all! I had a (potentially dumb) question as a non-local (FL gulf coast) diver. I’m headed over to BHB on Wednesday/Thursday next week (11/16-17) for the mid-afternoon high tides. I do photography and want the bright afternoon light. I am hoping to also get a late night/super early morning...

    a6400 + Salted Line + Inons at Blue Heron Bridge

    I went to BHB for a night (well, dusk) dive last week and had my first real outing with my rig. I have to say I’m very happy with the overall results. I wish that I had understood my focus light a little better, because for some reason I thought the strobe sync port on the Hydra would turn off...

    Question St Pete Bay Reef (or any other Pinellas near-shore reef) site info

    Relatively (9 months) new to the area and I’m looking for more shore diving opportunities off the peninsula. Pinellas County’s Artificial Reef information site lists all of the in- and out-shore reefs with their GPS coordinates. One that caught my eye was the St Petersburg Bay artificial reef...

    Question Recent Water/Viz conditions

    Hey all, I’ll be down at Casperson Beach tomorrow on a whim, and am curious how the viz has been the last few days. We had a line of storms roll through Largo/Clearwater today, which makes me think the water will be pretty stirred up. Last time I was down (about 3 weeks ago) I brought everything...

    Question Macro and focus types

    Hey all. I have an a6400 with dual strobes and a Salted Line housing, and am looking at picking up a macro lens to complement my existing setup (either a Sigma 16mm DC DN, or the Sony 28-70mm OSS). There are a number of good macro lenses out there, but I’m not looking to break the bank at the...

    For Sale NeoSport 3/2mm wetsuit XL - $50

    Used, but functional, NeoSort 3/2 full wetsuit, with DGX thigh pockets glued on. Bought this about 18 months ago for a live aboard in The Bahamas. The fit was a bit too large, but I made it work well enough in the warm waters there. Now that I've moved to central FL, the water is a bit colder...

    For Sale Neosport 7/5mm wetsuit XL - $125

    Closed Deep 6 Gear 5mm gloves L - $15

    Lost - Red iPhone SE in yellow WaterShot housing

    Dropped only about 25 yards off of the beach at Delnor-Wiggins State Park (just north of Naples, FL), by parking lot 1. Was doing a shore dive and didn’t clip it off while assisting buddy. Did a brief search but viz was only 5-8 ft at best. iPhone was placed in lost mode, so it isn’t going...

    What to do with old computers?

    Hey all, Just curious what you all do with your older dive computers when you upgrade to newer models. I am upgrading my primary and backup computers and now I have two computer that won’t be used (trying to consolidate on the Bühlmann also). One is a 1 year old Cressi, so I imagine I’ll be able...

    Closed Cressi Giotto console and USB interface - $150

    Hi all, I have a used Cressi Giotto imperial console up for sale. I bought it in April 2019 prior to my trip to the Bahamas. I actually took the computer out of the console and added a strap (included) to wear on my wrist as I already had a larger SPG on my regs. I put about 18.5 hours over 53...

    Wetsuit sizing

    I have a couple of question about sizing for the 3mm wetsuit, and looking for feedback from anyone who has one. I'm 190 lbs, 35" waist, 5" 11" tall, with a 44" chest, so I fit awkwardly somewhere between a Large and an XL. I'm wondering if I would be better off with a large and have it be tight...
