It is kind of hard to fathom but the Eagle dive was one week ago this morning. I had my trusty Nikonos III (an antique the is older than many of my fellow divers) that uses that odd stuff called film. Fortunately, the lab can process it directly to disk. Because I used T-Max in 400iso the pics are B&W and have some grain to them. I am pleased any of them came out because, as some of you noticed, my not so trusty light meter flooded and I had to guess at the camera settings. I thought you might enjoy a few shots.

Bob,
I've got you beat by one. In addition to my Nikonos V, which is feeling abandoned these days, I also have an old Nikonos II. Yes, it still works. The great feature is that without any electronics, if it floods, you just pour a can of Coke in it and give it a good swish. Good as new. I even have a strobe for it. I started my underwater picture shooting with that camera, before getting my own Nikonos V's. And now I feel so obsolete!

Joyce, you are way too young to own a Nikonos II. :D I was wondering where I was going to find service for my IIIs. Heck, can of Coke and swish it around ..... :lol:

Ok, things have settled down somewhat, and I would like to send thank you's to vendors for the things I won in the raffle. I couldn't hear who donated what items...

So, here is my question... who donated...

1. Mask & Snorkle
2. Dive Light
3. Wet Suit (and who do I contact to exchange it for a "slightly" larger size?)
4. I know who donated the Gift Cards (Both of the cards that I won)

Oh, and remember when no one answered for the first draw on the camera & housing? There was a reason!

Thanks!
Sure!
1. Mask & Snorkle - Apollo
2. Dive Light - DiveSports.com
3. Wet Suit (and who do I contact to exchange it for a "slightly" larger size?)- ScubaToys.com
 
My pleasure. Thanks for making it a memorable weekend!
