Thank you, that's a great idea!

Hello there! A friend of mine pointed out that both my YS-D1 strobes had cracks on them and that he had noticed a number of other YS-D1 strobes had the same problem. There appears to be a weak point where you attach either the ball adaptor or the YS-Adaptor to the strobe. The cracks are just...

Heelp!! i have just put in an order and paid for a Canon7D Mark ii as i thought there was a Sea and Sea housing out already. I don't want To get an Ike housing as I already have Inon strobes which I use with optic fibre cables. I also have a Sea and Sea NX compact dome port which I would still...

Hi there Is it true Sea and Sea will be bringing out a housing for the Canon 7D mk ii in January 2015 please could you let me know? thank you

... getting back to the focussing problem.... I also had a problem with focussing my 60mm lense until I got a focus light. It was very frustrating. A focus light solved it all :D

Hi! I have the Canon G16 with the Fantasea Housing. I bought the bluewaterphoto +7 and am very happy with it. Fantasea do a clip on adaptor which I am happy with - it is easy to clip on and off during a dive and you just screw the +7 onto it; which makes it easy to use for small and bigger...

Hi there I am in a quandary. I'd like to book a diving holiday but am not sure which to choose - Manado and KBR OR Puerto Galera in the Philippines. I'd like to see lots of beautiful reefs, big fish (such as reef sharks, napoelon wrasse) and big schools of fish for WA photography as well as...

Thanks All! I did spend time above water testing out the suggestions by Interceptor and thought I had it down pat. It all worked fine as he suggested on land, but when I tried it out in the ocean, the manual strength was not good enough at all. Needless to say, I think I have it right now. A...

So I am back... and spent the first two days of my diving holiday struggling with my strobes. I put the camera (Canon T3i / 600D) in Manual, strobe on Manual, ACC in, rhs dial on the 3o'clock mark and fired. The strobe went off but did not light anything up. I was really close. I moved the...

Awesome! Yay, I think I have it! You are a superstar, thank you! I will be using this all in 3 weeks time in Mozambique so will let you know how it all pans out! Thank you very much :D

Just my 10c worth... the shutter speed is virtually the same on the G16 as it is on my T3i. There is basically no shutter lag with the G16 - it is fantastic :D I would highly recommend this camera and the Fantasea housing is great too - you get access to all buttons on the camera, it has a...

Thanks Interceptor. Wierd, why don't the diffusers work with TTL auto? Is that the Auto option as opposed to TTL and TTL low? the little magnifying glass I am referring to is that dial at the bottom rhs of the strobe which you can turn and it brings a tiny circle forward in the bottom rhs of...

I have both the G16 in fantasea housing and the canon t3i in a sea and sea housing. You really need to decide what kind of photos you want to take and what you want to do with them. The G16 is great for macro and you can get wet lenses that you can add to the housing that will give you...

Interceptor.... Which is the TTL diffuser? I got -0.5 stop, 4900k -0.5 stop and 4600k -0.5 stop diffusers with my z240. Didn't realize there was a TTL diffuser. Also, what is that little magnifying glass shaped thing you can move in and out in front the front of the strobe? I have the...

I've seen photos of nudibranchs standing up... Sort of half on the coral and the other (front) half raised up against a dark background. How come I have never seen nudis like this on any of my dives over the past 10 years?

Oh thanks so much Interceptor! I guess this is one of those cases of operator error! will give your advice a try at the weekend. thank you :)

I have a Canon G16 as my point and shoot and a Canon 600D as my DSLR. I use one INON Z240 as I don't dive in conditions where I can shoot WA. The INON is driving me crazy. I am so stressed with all the settings (I like to shoot on M and AV, mostly M because I shoot macro and like black...

Wow... Top 5 dive sites in South Africa.... Steenbras Deep, Noble Reef and New Reef in Gordon's Bay (the other side of False Bay to Simons Town) - fabulous, unspoilt reefs, unusual marine life, macro climates all of their own, diverse, nudibranchs, lush...colorful - simply stunning! oops, that...

Thank you! :D yes I did mean Z240 ....

Thanks Interceptor! Aaah yes, manual..... and then manual strobe setting... which I just don't seem to be able to master with the Inon S240. I wonder, sometimes, whether I have got it on the wrong settings!? I set the left hand dial to manual, don't press in the button on the rhs and dial...
