Lost Camera - Bahamas

[davbader]

Anyone find a Sealife DC600 floating in the Ocean, I lost one on a night dive on Stevie's Wonder. :depressed:

Lesson learned: Always have a light or cylume on the camera as well as our body!

must be the Bahamas. Was just there Nov 7-12th and lost my DC600 w/dual strobes while night diving on Will Laurie. Next time I will weight it down as well, so it sinks instead of floats. SUCKS DOESNT IT?!

YIKES....

Sorry to hear of this for both of you.

Please tell me you had insurance.

I was in the Bahamas for 2 weeks.

I brought my camera home with me!! Also over 1000 photos.

My camera is always attached to me with one of those coiled thingies. A very cheap investment, considering the cost of the camera, strobe, and the priceless memories!!

My insurance company replied in more polite terms that they don't cover loss due to my stupidity! I'll probably wait till Sealife unveils the DC1000 to replace it.

Don't feel bad guys - I took a DC down to 60' when I noticed I hadn't latched the case! DUM-DA-DUM-DUMB!

Which insurance company did you go with? I noticed DAN's did not cover due to loss.

Still Crying,

I lost a brand new digital camera at Oil Slick Leap on Bonaire in July. Made it out of the water with it and set it on the roof of the truck while taking my gear off. Forgot I placed it there and drove off with it on the roof of the truck... That made for a long week. I felt very foolish. To make it even worse, that camera was a birthday gift from my wife, so I really felt bad about it. Believe me, I know how you feel. almtree: Bob
