I shoot video. I need the ability to put myself in any position and stay there perfectly still.
I dove with it years ago, but don't remember how I weighted myself. I seem to recall wearing the pony slung put the negative weight of the tank valve and reg at my left chest, throwing off my ability to shoot in a vertical position.
Its so trivial you can ignore it. Al80s of air/nitrox start to throw you off but anything less than that is quite managable after only a few dives.
