I can't find an "MS1" strobe on Backscatter's website.

The MiniStrobe 1 is no longer in production, they have upgraded it to the MiniStrobe 2 aka MS2

 

[hedonist222]

Is it MiniStrobe or Mini Flash?
I always thought it was MF-1 succeeded by MF-2.

Mini Flash

He meant MF-2

My apologies for the confusion

Water temps currently running around 33/34C off Dubai and Abu Dhabi at the moment.

I accompanied a couple of buddies yesterday afternoon to a site in Abu Dhabi that promised to reveal sheep nudis and was not disappointed.

However, despite our best efforts to avoid current and using tide timetables we had a miserable time in 1m vis and dig in with a muck stick to stare at a leaf and see if there was anything moving.



The next shot is a crop of the above. I was using my 105mm lens with a +10 diopter



I do have a +23 Diopter but lent it to my buddy who was shooting video. I'm not sure I want to return to this site to be honest as it was horrible.
