Spotters? That seems a little hokie. I am not sure that someone called a "spotter" is worth paying extra for on a dive. If you look at dive ops in the US they have diveguides that do those tasks. The diveguide even invites the guest to leave if the guest does a "no-no". Not sure if a "spotter" is worth the cost.

A spotter is exactly that - a "dive guide that do those tasks", specifically one that's familiar with how serious photographers operate. And I believe you pay them the same, maybe even less that any other dive guide.
 
So, a "spotter" is a a dive guide ++? Same price you pay, but you're assured to see more critters for photo ops... and they're extra patient as they know that the divers they are guiding are photo monsters....(or masters, or idols... or whatever they're called).

Still need to be in that class. So I can do some spotting jobs, save up to buy myself a new S80 to start my u/w photo career.
