    D50, D90 or new P&S?

    After reading these comments and looking around a bit I think a good option may be to get a new, less expensive camera and housing and then add some nice strobes that I can carry over to a housing for my D90. I was looking at the Olympus FE-360 and the accompanying Olympus housing. I think...

    D50, D90 or new P&S?

    I'm a fairly proficient photographer (on land) and a decent scuba diver and looking at a few options for getting a better underwater setup. I currently use an older pentax s5i with the pentax uw housing and no separate strobes or anything. I have a Nikon D50 and D90 for normal use with the...

    Sept 2010 honeymoon trip options

    Flying to/from the US and either Phuket or Bangkok is easy. It's when we're in Krabi, it seems like a lot of work to fly to Phuket. The flights I see on kayak.com take you from Krabi to BKK and back to Phuket and are over $200 per person. From what I can tell, Krabi and Phuket are about 75...

    Sept 2010 honeymoon trip options

    Thanks for the weather info quero! that helps a lot. If we go to Krabi then Phuket, what is the best way to get there? Looks like the commercial airlines fly to Bangkok then down to Phuket, spendy and a lot of flying for such a short trip.

    Sept 2010 honeymoon trip options

    We considered a ton of places but are pretty set on Thailand now. I looked at the Philippines and Indonesia but we're only going to be diving for a few days out of a 2 week trip so it's more about the other things we can do.

    Sept 2010 honeymoon trip options

    Is there a significant difference in weather conditions between the West and East side of the island of Phuket or do you have to go the East coast of the country for much better weather?

    Sept 2010 honeymoon trip options

    I've been poking around a couple forums trying to figure out where we should take our honeymoon to next September. We're looking to combine an exotic location with some adventurous activities, sight-seeing, luxurious lodging on a nice beach and some great diving. Thailand seems to fit the bill...

    Narrowing down honeymoon options

    I keep going back and forth, lol. I'm not sure if I'm overly concerned about hurricane danger but given the possibility we're thinking of avoiding that area and either doing Fiji or Thailand. I know Thailand will get some rain while we're there but really won't bother us much unless it rained...

    Narrowing down honeymoon options

    Wow, lots of great info Thanks for the suggestions. I think if we did Cayman/Jamaica we'd skip diving all together in Jamaica since it doesn't sound worth it. The resort we'd stay there (The Caves) is pretty small so a touristy first half of the trip is fine. I'm definitely going to...

    Venezuela + Curacao/Bonaire for honeymoon

    I'm trying to plan our honeymoon for Sept of 2010 and right now one of our top 3 choices is a mix of the ABC islands and possibly Venezuela. We'd like to kind of mix up our trip a bit and combine some sight-seeing, adventure activities, scuba diving and a smaller, more romantic resort on a...

    Narrowing down honeymoon options

    My fiance and I are going on our honeymoon next September and we're trying to narrow down our options. We're looking for a tropical place with great beaches and preferably a smaller, more romantic resort but things to do nearby would be nice. We'd also like to go diving at least 3 days. I'm...
