Is the Rev number accessible anywhere else other than the box? Just got mine a couple weeks ago straight from GoPro and it won't stay on more than 30 minutes period. Definitely hot. Googling saw some link about removing the FCC sticker from inside the battery compartment to fix. Something...

Bummer on Southern Nikonos quitting. He was a great guy to talk to on the phone and did awesome work.

I have a Nik V along with a 15mm, (2) 20mm, 35mm, couple ike strobes, Nikon strobe (102? the big one), and other misc stuff. Hate to get rid of it all but essentially worthless now. Don't want to think about how much money I have invested in it all.... The pictures it took were awesome even...

I have a D80 and recently moved up to a D7000. Reason was my daughter is a gymnast and most meets are from a distance in low light gyms. D80 I had to really push the ISO to get pictures even using a Nikon 70-200mm lens (2.8, ouch pricey). Other than that I liked the camera and was going to...

Hmmmm, I have pictures from the 80's somewhere but obviously film. If I get time I'll try and dig them up and scan.

Sigh....first year we won't be there in April. Kids spring breaks don't mesh. All really bumming hard.

I just upgraded from a D80 to a D7000. For me it was a huge upgrade. Doing indoor sports photography it's much better than the D80. Next step is saving for a case. Really makes me sad to see my Nikonos V and all that glass/flashes/etc sitting their lonely and not really worth much.

I was told the $20K/month was USD which was no way (SDS employee). Someone at the resort (not customer) said it was $10K/month but a little skeptical of how they would know. Even that would be large in this economy. Watching the boats it looked to me like the boats in general were somewhat...

Down here now and Sand Dollar says they own the pier/land to the road. They have added a few things at the top of the pier since we've been here to work out of and are going to build a building. Other than checking in at the old building nothing has changed. Twinky/Omar/Abraham/all are the...

Been a great week here and will write up a trip report on the Reef/Wyndham/whatever the name now along with Sand Dollar later. Not sure if we'll make it to WW tonight or not. As usual we have somewhat "spread out" in our accomdations and will take some serious packing for an early flight...

We're leaving in the morning for Coz/the Reef. At this point fortunately I haven't paid, couldn't get in touch with anyone in Houston for weeks. Downside is the Reef has my reservation but it's been problematic getting what I owe to pay before I leave. Seems they only answer email once a day...

Thanks Christi, quite a few good dive ops down there including yours. Bad situation and hopefully everything will get worked out and subjectively for me since we'll be there Thursday. If not I might be making a pleading call to you or Aldora :D

I've been going back and forth with Sand Dollar via phone/email and they are picking up at the pier along with honoring the punch cards. While not business as usual the service appears to be. They've historically been a good dive op for us to work with and while this is a bump in the road they...

I talked to Sand Dollar directly yesterday after posting. They are going to honor the punch cards and will be picking up at the pier as normal. They are going to keep in touch. They don't know what is going on with the resort specifically but said it looked normal to them other than they got...

Ok, need more info and you can pm me directly. We're heading down there Thursday and having trouble getting our reservations confirmed (we're members). So Sand Dollar is out? I have several dives still on a card. Guess I'll give them a call directly as well.

Thanks and sounds good! We'll try and be there between 6 and 7.

So we're on for the 7th? What time and it sounds like Wet Wendy's? Where is it at? Don't go downtown too much anymore, too many cruise ship people. Can't make it real late since we have a flight in the morning. Then again, that early thought seems to get kicked to the curb normally.... :D

Starting on the 8 day countdown. I'm in on a meet and drink. What time/day? I'll be the guy with the beard and a gray Gilboa t-shirt on :beerchug:

"Training is required for anyone using or owning an ELF" Huh? So $205 for the "tool" and another $180 to get trained? Sounds like "carbon credits".....

I'm in the same boat regarding filters. I found a rubber Fernco coupler at the hardware store that fits over the barrel of a Sartek housing perfectly which would allow me to install/remove on the fly underwater. Now trying to figure out what color filter to buy to mount on it. Various...
