My first reg set was DIN because I figured it didn't really matter. I went to a dive op in Mexico that would have gotten all my business since we plan to move there in a few years and asked about DIN tanks and the owner looked at me like a second head sprouted out of my shoulders and asked why on earth I would have one of those. So I went to the other dive op in town and they were totally cool with it. Needless to say, the second dive op is my go to for diving now. HOWEVER, one time I got on the boat and found they forgot to bring the DIN tanks I asked for. I had my DIN to YOKE adapter so it was OK but I don't like the additional length that puts the 1st stage right behind my head. So even though I like DIN better for its compact size and more secure mounting, I've bought yoke regs since then. I wish the whole world just picked DIN.
