I recently got a bit of a deal on a Reefmaster CL... I'd have preferred a digital, but I really can't afford one and am comfortable learning on a cheap 35mm that won't reduce me to tears if I flood it. With the deal I got, I break even after maybe three rolls worth of shots versus the underwater disposables, and the Reefmaster should give me a slightly better chance at acceptable shots.
It's also small and can be tucked away when not in active use. As a beginner, I appreciate this since there's liable to be times when I'm working on higher-priority issues like ascents and descents.
One question: Several sources indicate I should go with 400 speed film for any underwater use. The book for the Reefmaster indicates 200 is preferred. Do you think I should stick with the 400 or downgrade to 200?
Thanks in advance! Any comments on the Reefmaster will be greatly appreciated as well.
