no, i never told, but since you ask, alas...
well, Smokeaire, Simbrooks, Wings, and I went on a drift dive in the Santa Fe River.
visibility was about 15 feet, and i took a few pictures and called it a day.
i then put the camera in a utility pocket that i keep on my right side. it is my custom
to lock the little latch keeping the pocket shut, and i have no reason to believe i did not on this ocasion, though
I do not remember if i did or not.
i did not invert or do anything weird for the remainder of
the dive.
we then exited and i took off my gear. i do not recall if the
camera was there or not.
Smokeaire and i then walked to get our cars, leaving our gear
unnatended for about fifteen minutes.
upon our return, we secured our gear, ate with the other
guys, and went for another dive.
while gearing up for the new dive, i noticed my camera was
missing. the utility pocket latch was open. the camera was not in my car nor in the immediate area.
i can think of two possible scenarios:
1. the camera dropped from my utility pocket at some point,
most likely because i failed to secure the latch, contrary to my
SOP; or
2. one of the dozens of people around our table took the camera while we weren't there.
i think that number 1 is more likely. in either case, i have no one but myself to blame for this one.
