CuzzA, for a $50 gamble, I just ordered one. It comes with an extra battery and charger. Even if it's junk, I'm not out a ton of cash. Thanks for the recommendation. I probably won't get to use it until next year but that gives me time to make a handle and color correction filter for it...

Ugh. I actually wrote someone at Sealife who said it would zoom while taking video. Obviously she didn't know her own products. Zooming while recording is a neat feature that I used a lot with my homemade UW housing and (now ancient) Sony video camera. If I can't find what I want then I'll...

Hey all, I've been looking for a new video camera setup and have certain wants. These are: Small and easy to travel with Must have ZOOM Must have either white balance or at least be able to mount a color correction lens High resolution / HD So far, the setup I like and and am considering is...

I have a JVC adixxion camera ... similar to the go pro. I have the same issues with it that you have with he gp and am also looking for a camcorder that I can build a housing for. I have a Sony PJ810 which has their balanced stability control. The lens actually floats inside the camera. I...

"Have you tried going to a primary-donate style of hose routing instead of secondary take/donate" I have no idea what this means.

Can anyone recommend a brand and even model of a swivel for my regulator? I constantly have to grab and hold my second stage when I'm turning my head because my second stage hose acts like a stick and pushes it out of my mouth. I've tried a shorter hose and it helps ... looking for the next...

Ppatin, I am strongly leaning toward the Juliet. The Spree sounds great but I really want a week long tip and the Spree doesn't offer any and the Juliet does. I appreciate your endorsement as I've been on several liveaboards ... some good and some not so good. Thanks. Mike

Thank you all. Having recommendations really means a lot. I saw that the spree requires you bring your own weights on this page http://www.researchvesselspree.com/spreeexpeditions/termsCond.aspx but on other pages I see that they supply weights. Every live aboard I've done supplied weights...

Can anyone recommend any US based liveaboards ... maybe out of Florida or Texas? Thanks, Mike

Kinda late notice ... and not on the dates I can dive. But thanks anyway.

Would like to dive the OH quarries or do some Huron shipwreck dives but don't have a buddy. If you're interested or don't mind a 3rd diver tagging along, let me know. Thanks, Mike

Nick, I can be asked to work right up to the last minute on Friday ... just like in the movie "Office Space". That said though I don't see any critical projects that would require my working this weekend so I'm pretty sure (not 100% though) that I'll have it off. Mike

Nick, So long as I don't have to work next weekend, I'm in. While I do prefer Whitestar to Portage, both are fine with me ... You pick. If you're good with this let me know and we'll talk on Thursday or Friday to confirm things. Later, Mike

Hey all, I'm looking for a dive shop and or a charter boat contact for Michigan's UP - Marquette area. We're taking a family vacation up there later this summer and I'd like to get some details on dive conditions and if the shop/boat can provide a dive buddy for a day or two. Any contact info...

Sorry mth. Can't do this weekend - too much family stuff going on. Let me know if things change for you or if you're able to dive next weekend also. Mike

Anyone interested in meeting me at Whitestar Quarry either Saturday 6/13 or Sunday 6/14? Let me know... Thanks, Mike

Brian, Did you find someone to go diving with back in early May? I want to dive Whitestar next weekend (sat 6/13 or sun 6/14). Are you interested in meeting me there? I do not have a regular dive buddy. Mike

Great diving with you too Dave. Thanks for letting me lead the dives and practice my nav skills ... sorry I got us so far off target - specially the first dive! You still interested in Gilboa next weekend?

Dave, Sunday sounds good to me. I'll pm you with my ph number. Let me know what time you're thinking about. Later, Mike
