Sorry Dee, I don't mean to torture you. The water will start to cool down here also in November. That's why I dive about 3 or 4 times a week now. September and October are probably the best months on Maui as the ocean is at its warmest and there are fewer tourists.
As for the pop-up info on the pics, I am more than happy to share that info as I am still experimenting with my camera on manual settings. I am not familiar with the 3000 and 4000 series or the 5050 model cameras but I have been leaving my internal flash on its max setting of +2.0 and playing with the F stops somewhere between 5.0 and 10.0 , mostly at 5.6 and 8 in the A mode of the A/S/M. I also adjust the exposure between -0.7 to +2.0. I usually take about 10 shots of a subject, each at different increments of the settings, and keep the best one.
