I am thinking about buying a GoPro + Tray + Dual Light setup. I would like to upgrade to a compact camera in the future, so I am wondering whether I should get a tray that would allow me to upgrade, or should I just get a tray just for my GoPro setup. Also, the price range of tray seems to be...

So, for my first setup I narrowed it down to these two: Kraken Single Handle I-das Single Arm Does anyone have any experience with either? This is going to be my first setup other than a gopro on a stick, so I'm still trying to keep it simple. Right now I just need one arm to acomodate a...

I have a KISS GEM SCR Rebreather, like new, only been on 5 dives, that I haven't used often enough to justify keeping. I'm looking for a photo rig to go with my RX100 Mk. 1. Need: * Tray/arms * Dual strobes (I like Inon Z240s or Sea&Sea YS-D2s) * Optical sync cables * Focus light * Ball arms...
