    Sidemount in Wrecks

    We had a team diving with Sidemount during our 2-weeks safari at Truk Lagoon. Thus, it was 100% wreck diving safari, and with sidemount. In fact three of us were starting sidemount diving at that time, and we didi TDI Sidemount course before our trip (ok, some training dives also @ Truk). For...

    Sudan North or South

    Been there on last March. I can recommend North Sudan, for many reasons: 1) it is more safe than southern Sudan 2) easier to get flights 3) better selection of good liveboards 4) nice divesites (including wreck of Umbria, Jacques Costeau's Precontinent II, etc) If you want to taste diving in...

    Videoclip: Diving wreck of Umbria, Sudan

    As promised, here is the part 2. Diving inside the wreck of Umbria. It's amazing wreck, but much more challenging to dive than e.g. Thistlegorm. This is because you have to know routes, or you get lost.... However, there is lot of things to see, e.g. cargo rooms with thousands of...

    Deep diving under the Thomas Canyon arch

    I've been diving at Red Sea every spring, using Emperor's liveboards, and seen many sites. One of the most interesting site is - surprisingly - at North / the Straits of Tiran. This is called Thomas Reef. The speciality in it is the very deep canyon, in which you can find arches. It's close to...

    Ray @ videoclip - but what kind of ray?

    Hi, I would be happy to get help to recognize what is this ray which I recorded couple of weeks ago @ Red sea (Straits of Tiran). The upper side was totally black, thus according to my understanding this is not an ealge ray. But what specie it is? Link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rvd1eMw2lWo

    I just came back from 9-days liveboad cruise at route "really deep south" @ Red sea. We spent some days in Egypt-Sudan border, where are the Elba reefs. A short 8-minutes teaser video can be found here. I picked some nice moments (....from 1100 videoclips....) and composed this teaser. Enjoy...

    Blue Water Filter, there is an alternative!

    Coming back to color correction methods (with filter or without): I did a very simple test in swimming pool, taking video without filter, with red filter and just by editing colors later on. Of course the this testing environment was not so ideal; depth in this pool is too shallow to use red...

    Red Sea diving videos

    Hi Misa, My camera is Sony HDR-SR12, which I think is a great "tool". It records full-HD more than 40 hours using inernal hard disk, so during whole week -or two weeks- diving trip I do not need to change tapes or load anything to computer. My housing is Amphibico EVO Elite (link). I compared...

    Suunto Elementum Aqua Review

    Hi, Happy to share many experiences with jimzev. I've used Suunto Elementum Aqua since early summer 2009, and I just add some additional remarks : - I've been happy to use this dive watch as a second backup computer. Ok, it's simpler and do not act as a full-scale diving computer, but as...

    Blue Water Filter, there is an alternative!

    My experience has been, that in overall it's good to use filter in depths of more than 10 meters. If I'm taking video between 4-10 meters depth, I can get better result by editing colors with video editing software (in my case Sony Vegas Pro). And in lower levels (less than 4 meters) it's quite...

    What are the best 3 camcorders?

    After my [careful] analysis, I decided to get Sony HDR-SR12 (recording Full-HD to hard disk up to 48 hours) and Amphibico housing for it. Now, after first trip to Red Sea and several test dives in local (Finland) waters have been very satisfied. The price of these seems to vary country by...
