    Good options on lightweight "full featured" cameras

    Thanx for the feedback. To be clear the 3 bags include my normal dive gear, laptop and some clothes. Camera rig is one 50 lb bag by itself with chargers, wire and heavy dense pieces spread arround in other bags. Carry on can be almost 40 lbs at times. Going to take advice and now focus my...

    Good options on lightweight "full featured" cameras

    So to be clear I dive with my Nikon D80, dual strobes, focus light, both fish-eye and 60 mm Macro when I am serious about taking pictures. I know the D80 is pretty old, but other than sunbursts, it does an excellent job for what I want to do most of the time. My portfolio is online at...

    I just found out I will be on the island next week for a business trip. Can't pass up the opportunity to get wet. I'd like to get some night dives in - even if it's only shore diving. I would also like to go out on the 30th. Going to fly on Sun. I'm a DM and will have my own gear - will...

    Strobe pointing tips needed

    I have a Nikon D80 and dual strobes (DS125 and DS160) and find that I am not being very successful in getting all three lined up to intersect my subject on a reliable basis. I was wondering what solutions everyone has tried to add "pointer" lights/ lasers/ etc to serve as setup tools - It's...

    Dive ops: pimping vs legitimate info

    So how about a different approach - I will admit that I am a somewhat 1 DiveOp on Cozumel yearly since 2005 - Heading there on Saturday as a matter of fact. What about a sticky - Christi? - that does a compare/contrast of the DiveOps on Cozumel and let the customers add comments/ dive...

    Lionfish/DM's don't care!

    Interesting discussion - a couple of observations having dived with these NASTY fish on the wrecks off of North Carolina (the wrecks we were on were 95-140' deep). When they first showed up the local dive industry in NC tried to kill them as they encountered them on the wrecks. There was no...

    Aries Elite T3 Sofware alternatives/upgrades

    The Nitrogen Bar symbols on the dive computer face seem to be saved in the field TLBG in the DiveDetails table. I'm not sure what the NTIME field represents. BTW I was at MLDS yesterday and they said there is a MAJOR upgrade coming that includes new software and firmware. The LDS's are...

    Aries Elite T3 Sofware alternatives/upgrades

    OK before I start, let me say I am what most of you would call a computer GEEK, specifically a database programmer among other things. I have a his/her set of these computers and now have around 49 dives recorded on both of them. I'd love to use the PC software to generate log entries but it...
