Had the Tokina 10-17, sold it on E-bay for reasons already mentioned
DS200 has cycle time of less than 1 second
Although I use Subal and Ikelite housings, my buddy uses the Nauticam (not NAUDICAM) and he has found the optical performance is lacking with the smaller dome ports.
Looking at your flicker photos (which have very good composition, you have a natural eye) many of your subjects are poorly exposed. Have you considered more powerful strobes? Your Raggies look great, but lots have a hot spot in the center with dim/green exposure surrounding. How are you usualy positioning your strobes? When shooting sharks, I usualy position my strobes high at 1 and 11 o'clock. This minmizes the reflective underbelly of pelagics, and gets a more pleasing exposure to the rest of the subject. I really like the way you make an effort to shoot up into the sharks. Many photogs frequently neglect that dramatic angle.
Thanks for the questions
