I have a Panasonic ZS3 and an Inon S2000 strobe. While the ZS3 does great video, I've been trying to also use it for stills. The problem I'm having is that the stills all come out very dark. Settings: ZS3 - normal picture mode, ISO Sensitivity =Auto, AWB, C-AF, I.Exposure OFF, Color...

Does anyone have any experience with this light? Is it difficult to operate? How about with gloves on? How do you change the power settings? Do you have to scroll through the strobe/sos/on/off before you get to the setting you want? Depending on the responses, I'm considering...

Jerry, I reciently ordered a Techniflex suit and thought it was ordered with the hard sole boots, but instead it came with the soft sole boots. The legs of the suit seem to be cut a bit long and the soft sole boots tend to want to fall off my feet. They are really soft and I don't think...

My wife and I have been invited to Siesta Key which is close to Sarasota Florida. We will be driving down from Arizona and plan on bringing all of our dive gear. Does ANYONE have any information on where to dive while we're in that part of the state? Any specific beaches to dive off? Any...

I see where the Inon S-2000 and I believe the D-2000 both have wireless TTL. I'm interested in the S-2000 and am looking for ANYONE who has actually used it in this mode. What are the tradeoffs? Do you have to use the mirrors or is the flash inside the case enough to set it off? I'm using a...

I'm really new at this and don't want to be buying everything for a second time in just a few months. I have been doing a bit of research on trays, handles and arms. Since I like video as well as stills, I am leaning toward a tray with two handles thinking it will be easier to hold steady...

I hope this is ok. I posted this in the video section of the forum as well but thought this spot might be the most appropriate. I'd like to get into UW photography as well as video but don't really want to carry a big camera or camcorder on vacations. My thought was to get a decent point and...

I'd like to get into UW video but don't really want to carry a big Camcorder on vacations. My thought was to get a decent point and shoot camera that can also shoot HD video at 30 fps minimum. Since I would also use the camera on land, I would like one that has a good zoom lense. Close up...

1) Do both the Superstretch and Exotherm II have 2-way zippers? In other words can they be unzipped from the bottom up to allow for a p-valve hose or normal relief. 2) Which wicks moisture away from you better Superstretch or Exotherm II? The add says Exotherm wicks moisture away and the...

Can I add dry gloves to the Techniflex at a later date (after suit purchase)?

Another questions. I know this is personal preference, but I'll throw it out there and see what I get. My old dry suit had built in boots. I'm not sure if that is a good way to go with the new suit or not. Neoprene socks and rock boots? Its another item to pack for a trip. It looks like USIA...

Can someone tell me if the p-valve that comes with the Techniflex suit is of high quality or desireable design, or should I order the suit without a p-valve and install one from a different manufacturer at a later date? What's the best type of p-valve to install?

I've only used a rear entry suit and am now getting ready to replace it with a front entry. Can someone tell me if you can take a pee with the diagonal zipper front entry suit or do you really need to have the relief zipper installed. I dive a back plate with crotch strap and am hesitating on...

I notice two difference between the Aqua Pro Plus and the Techniflex that I have questions about. First: The dump valve on the Aqua Pro Plus is higher (upper arm) vs the (forearm) placement on the Techniflex. Can someone comment on the advantages / disadvantages of both? I don't see...

My wife and I will be in Kona on the Big Island for the last 2 weeks of November. We're dragging our gear with us and would like to know if we should bring 3mm or 7 mm wet suits. Any suggestions would be appreciated. P.S. If anyone else is going to be around Kona during this time, please...

I have an older Salvo 21w HID can light with adjustable head. It has a LiON battery pack in it now that use to get around 6 hours between charges. It no longer takes a charge and I believe It needs a new battery. The light on the charger stays green all the time and the battery is DEAD so I'm...
