JeffG:On my belt?
Suit Heater, and my normal can light. The Can light is on and clipped to my right d-ring in case I need it to signal. (You can see it hanging down in the picture)
The two battery packs that drive the video light are attached to the bottom of the video housing.
JeffG:Yea yea yea. Yuk it up, surfer boy.
But I'm using my camera now. (Mind you...those are Nadwidny's video lights I was using)
Its Easier to hold "up" than to hold down. Its a more "natural" feeling.
and when you are not using the camera it hangs down out of the way, instead of floating into stuff. (I hang mine from the crotch ring)
riguerin:Ah, yes ... upon closer inspection, I can see the clipped off primary light. Out of curiosity, do you ever use the video lights for signaling ?
So, when are you gonna be ready for another Yukon dive ... test out that fancy new rig of yours in our tropical So Cal waters ?
PerroneFord:I'm sure I can rig up something suitable with cave line and snapbolts!
Question to all of you who shoot underwater. How do you monitor your image?? I am using a Canon ZR200 in an Ikelite housing and the viewfinder is SO small, I can't even see what I am getting edge to edge with the rig held nearly up to my eye. At arm's distance, it's just a "best guess". Anything out there to make this easier?
PerroneFord:You can swing the LCD panel out? Or is the LCD Panel in the back? The viewfinder on my DVX100 is probably 5x the size of the one on the Canon ZR200. I'll probably have to go with the mirror.
