Unfortunately, I can not tell too much about the diving in Cuba. When I've been there I had quite some trouble with my ears, so I could only dive twice in Maria la Gorda. However, one thing to consider -and I never thought of before - is that Cuba is a socialistic country. Without going into a...

Thank you. The video looks amazing and I now officially want to go to Sipadan :-) I am a bit surprised that you do not seem to have any focusing problems with your camera. A friend of mine just recently got the xz1 as well and he has the problem that the camera very often goes for a short while...

We plan a round trip on Cuba and I wonder which regions I should visit for nice diving. So far I plan for Isla Juventud, Maria La Gourda and Playa Giron. Can someone recommend other destinations?

So that was filmed with the XZ-1?

I am really interested in the video sample you posted earlier but it has been removed. Any chance you would upload it once again? Also it would be interesting to see videos with the improved settings. THX Martin

Sorry for the late answer - the thread notification did not work. I haven't looked on the display most of the time while filming - I was kind of busy holding the camera in one hand, the torch in the other and not bumping my head into the wall ;-) But you could see it nicely. After all you had a...

I do not have either a cavern nor a cave diving certification so I expected to be taken only to zones where I could always see the sunlight which, for me at first sounded a bit lame (and I considered going for a cave certification right away). However, that is not really the case with the...

Hey there. I've been to Mexico in Febuary and did some cenote diving there. One time I've been really lucky with the weather and could make a video with these astonishing light effects, so I thought I post it here as someone might be interested. Check it out: YouTube - Excellent light &...

One thing that hasn't been mentioned regarding the original Panasonic ZS3 uderwater housing is that the internal flash configuration really sucks. The flash will only illuminate the right part of the picture, the rest of the picture stays in the shadow. With my Canon underwater housing I haven't...

I found a 35W HID torch with 2100lm and 6600mAh battery capacity at a quite attractive price. It is actually sold all over the web but I could not find a review or at least forum posts on it. Does anyone have an opinion on it? Here is a link

I found this is a very handy tool for making lift estimates. http://admin.minus-mp3.com/Bouyancy_calculator.xls

THX - But how much strap should I leave behind next to the buckle?

I am going on my second dive trip with this bcd in two weeks. This thime it really has the chance to proof it is a travel bcd since it will be a backpack trip in the Philippines with plenty of island hopping (in january it was a liveaboard in Egypt). Anyway, I need to save weight and the first...

What is your conclusion?

Thanks for the responds. It feels extremly comfortable when I try it at home without a bottle, so I guess I will skip the shoulder pads at this time. I added a crotch strap and D-rings though. The more time passes by the more excited I get about it.

Here we go: the URL is: dykarna.nu - communityn där dykare samlas

OK - we have a problem here. I cannot yet make URL posts. I need to have at least 5 posts that is why I am writing about this limitation ;-)

Honestly I have no idea. There sure is some diving going on here and we have severeal dive clubs in Stockholm but I am not into cold water diving (yet?). For me it is all about being in warm water with a great underwater view with tons of fishes and corals. Luckily, Egypt is just "round the...
