I just moved to southern FL from the Seattle area. I have a question for any of you experienced in u/w photo in the WPB area. I'm finding it very difficult and frustrating to try to take pics while on a drift dive, which is all there is here. I like (and need) to stop and linger to get some shots, maybe even spend a good chunk of the dive in one area, but that's nearly impossible when trying to keep up with a group. In the Seattle area, it was just the opposite, drift diving was (mostly) avoided, dives have to be planned during slack currents, otherwise you may end up in the middle of the Puget Sound (or 700ft down on the bottom).
I've also noticed that the charters here do not have any decent camera rinse buckets or film changing tables. They have one little bucket for the masks, and no table. It's not anywhere big enough to accomodate a camera and a strobe. Doesn't anybody like to take pics around here? I don't mean to sound like I'm whining, I'm just looking for some answers.
