guys thank you all for the inputs. It seems that they all share common features and only differnet in a few design points rather than performance. I could be wrong. But I also had to decide whether to order from abroad and hope for the best or use something that is readily available in my...
You are absolutely right Sang, and I am not planning on doing anything without proper training, I was simply justifiying why I am heading to Wings. obviously I cannot modify my current mares BC for tasks like these. The skills and experience I was talking about were about me doing my best in...
I do totally agree and have been focusing on developing skills mostly on my own rather than collect licenses.. but do you imagine trying to modify my current BC to accomodate a twin for example?
I'm in noway trying to showoff using my diving gear nor trying to impress girls. I'm currently advancing in specialities and at somepoint would like to go technical . There's no harm in buying a bc that would be useful for such target and get used to it at an early stage
Hey all,
Well after about 60 dives with the Mares Dragon AT, I am considering a move to something that will carry me further into the scuba world. I have asked many divers and read alot of articles. unfortunately I am not able to try someone's backplate/wing BCs but will rely on all the...
/me takes a deep breath and chucks away the rig ....
Dave I'v had about 50 minutes of video raw in the camera, sooo much of it was interesting marine activity or simply a nice view. I just had to ditch most of it coz i was shaking so bad and the fact that I was blindly pointing the camera...
Robin, I was trying to ignore the fact that I'm not experienced enough :P , I only have dived 21 times so far and I did notice that my buoyancy and breathing are improving. Since I was in a diving trip to the red sea I kinda forced myself to bring it down with me just one dive. From now on, I'll...
I can't thankyou enough for your kind compliments and observations.. Now that I'v watched a dozen more times, I can see exactly what you all mean ... its really hard to keep the camera steady. I must admit my buoancy is still not at the level I would like. It's a big factor here.
Robin those...
Hi all,
I'v just finished my first diving edited clip. There isn't much material as I took the cam in only one dive out of the 9 dives when I went to the red sea (was busy enjoying the dives instead :eyebrow:).
I'd appreciate your comments. specially the critics as I want to improve on this...
Yea I'v read about that, and I was surprised that the trimix update was being anticipated for so long , instead of following public's demand Uwatec develops another galileo , that is still not trimix capable and makes an Apnea function instead ! If they knew how many people asked me if my...
Hello all,
I've been heavily involved in aerial photography and videography using remote controlled helicopters for about 2 years now.
one of most valuable tools I have for video production is the proDAD Mercalli stabilization plugin:
proDAD - Mercalli -- Video Stabilizer
Since I...
Ike , thankyou so much for your reply.
It does seem that I am asking about regulatory requirements, however, I was just more concerned about delivering good quality of air to customers. I should mention that there are almost no regulators for this type of activity. It does sound bad but...
hello all..
In Kuwait, the diving community is enlarging fast and our filling stations are lagging behind, so me and a couple of friends might take this oppertunity to build a small commercial filling station for just standard air.
Naturally, I do the reasearchs and googling but I found it...
Thanks for your inputs Mark and Alcina, I agree on Ikelite , since I already have a housing made by them for my video cam. it looks and feels heavy duty and the highly accessible and visible o-ring is a big plus for me.
However, after looking around and checking prices of housings, ports and...
I'v been doing some research right after I posted..
A package that consists of the housing, ports, and lighting goes up to $3700 :confused::shocked2: WoW !
Hello there,
I'v got a Canon EOS Rebel XSi with its standard 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 lens.
I would like to see what options available to use it underwater, Case, strobes.etc.
I am actually more interested in Macro shots so a recommendation with regards to choice of lens is also appreciated...
I just arrived from my very first diving trip with some friends. (Sharm el shiekh - egypt) (it was more like heaven underwater over there)
anyways, I kept reminding myself to double check the weights and try to pull them from the anywhere else other than the handle by force but they are...
