    Review Olympus OM-D E-M10 IV Underwater Camera & Housing

    This is a joke. This is only a joke. This is NOT a political statement. It is a joke. It helps to laugh at the things which stress us. Lighten up. Laugh and relax.

    Diving at Ocean Cay MSC Marine Reserve

    JMichaelTX- thanks for your reply. I look forward to hearing your experience and finding out what MCS will offer there. As far as Nassau, the government has restricted the island to only having two choices of dive shops. Closer to the port, and diving on that side, is Bahama Divers, Scuba...

    Why are there only Two Dive Operators on New Providence (Nassau) Bahamas?

    I would like to hear from others as to why there are only two dive operations on all of New Providence. The two operators are Stuart Coves and Bahama Divers. Please don’t get me wrong. I am not complaining about them. I have done dozens of dives with each of them and have written 5 star...

    Sony A6000 with Meikon housing

    Hi Johnnyafrica: I''d like to hear your experience with the a6000 in the Meikon. I also picked up the pair. I know there are a few complaints. However, having had 10+ underwater rigs, I think the Miekon looks as good as my Canon, Ikelite, Intova and Olympus housings. I will be testing it over...

    Looking for a dive resort on Oahu

    Argghhhh. I'm back and now the forecast is minus 25 for the next couple of nights! The big game will be on the big screen and not in person. Can't wait for Hawaii. Even if there are no scuba resorts I will have a great time diving Oahu again. Thanks everyone for you wisdom and input.

    Looking for a dive resort on Oahu

    Hi Dr Lecter- We're heading to Oahu the first of April. I was hoping to hit Turtle Bay on the North Shore. Perhaps that will still be too early. Thank you for the advice. I will contact Gabe at Kaimana Divers. Happy New Year!

    Hi fellow divers. We are returning to Oahu for 5 days and I'm looking for an actual "dive resort" like they have in other locations like Cozumel; a place to stay where they have boat diving from the resort and shore diving AT the resort. I haven't found any listings for such. If you know of...

    Duane- I checked out your flickr album. I was incredibly impressed by your overall photography skills. Thank you for your thoughts and info on the housing. I have wanted to get one for my t2i but couldn't justify the price of an ikelite. Keep up the great work. drmark920
