    OT: 5050 spotting scope photography?

    A bit off topic I know (appologies) but has anyone used their 5050 for shooting through a spotting scope?? If so which scope? How easy/difficult is it? I want to do some wildlife photography as there are some nice woodlands near by and I could make more use of my 5050 when I'm not diving...

    Green Force

    Just got a new Green Force setup, FII battery and Tristar 3 head and Umbelical. Not sure if this is common knowledge or not yet, but, Green Force have changed the Tristar head slightly. Not had it in the water yet, this weekend diving has been blown out. This is what I've been told... The...

    When a bad day turns out rather well :)

    I recently went for a fresh water dive to take some pictures of a couple of the clubs divemaster trainees. They were working on their map projects and I offered to take a few pics to go with their maps. I was armed with my camera gear and a few sets of spare batteries. All the batteries had been...

    Picture Storage

    Has anyone got any experience or thoughts on the Archos AV range of starage devices? I was thinking about the new AV420 unit, 29Gb hard drive should hold tons of pics. Plus it looks to be a good gadget for dive trips as its an MP3 player and even better you can put MPEG4 hi quality movies on it...

    I hate to moan but............

    Hi all, After reading comments from people here about the digital lens dock I was kinda regretting buying the Inon dock for my wide angle lens. Never mind I thought maybe I can get the best of both worlds, Inon dock and the GB Undersea cable ties and steel cable from their DLD kit. I've sent...

    Pictures from the weekend

    Hi all, Finall had a chance to go for a splash with all my new toys. Unfortunatley we have a bit of a plankton bloom problem at the moment. Lots of very gloomy green water lol. Still, managed to get a few shots that aren't too bad.

    Strobe and Backscatter

    Hi all, Just been for another play in the pool with my kit. There was loads of muck in the pool tonight, think someones been eating bread in the pool lol was nasty. So the question is...... I still seemed to get lots of backscatter, no matter where i moved the strobe. Is this right? I know...

    Using WAL on 5050

    Ok here's what some will probably think is a silly question. If I'm now going to be using my Inon WAL on the 5050 housing, that will now allow me to get closer to the subject so with the aid of the strobe, there'll be more light. With Macro, from playing with the kit on the surface I can see...

    D-180 and the Magnet??????

    HI All, A bit confused here in the UK. So far I've been using my 5050 with no strobe and in P mode with the camera set to macro. Now I'm going to be using it with all my new toys ie, the D-180. Reading thru the manual (thank you inon USA), am I right in thinking that if I leave the camera set...

    Hi all, Big thanks for all your posts on here about strobes and such. Had a good read and placed and order with Yuzo last Thursday. Well his reputation was spot on. Lots of advice and excellent service, my kit arrived in the UK today and at almost half the UK prices, including the dreaded Duty...

    Importing into UK

    Hi all, Well after lots of recommendations and reading on this site. I'm about to put an order in to Yuzo for an Inon D180 and Inon Wide lens and fisheye tray and ICLS arm. I have Yuzo's prices which are great compared to the UK. Now I know I will have to pay duty and VAT to bring these into...
