I am fairly new to SCUBA, only being certified about 6 years. I only do warm water rec. diving. Where I live is a long drive to dive and have to stay overnight, so dont get to do much diving. I am about ready to get my own BCD. I have been reading the board for three or four years and have been interested in the BP/W setup. Looks and sounds like what I want. I have only used the jacket type BCD. My question is about trim. I hear so much written about the stability of the BP/W. But one interest I have is in photography. This requires you to be in all different positions at times to get the shot I want. I know the BP/W is stable in horizontal face down position, but how is it face up? How about vertical, head down? Vertical head up? Or on my side, horizontal? It seems to me that the side position would be the most difficult considering the center of gravity. Any thoughts on this concern? Just how stable is the BP/W in all these positions?
