    Do you wear a dive watch? (not computer)

    My old watches.. I am much more likely to have a more 20 yrs old Tissot Seastar 100 Auto my wife gave me when we got engaged, with fairly frequent rotation in of a glycine bronze combat auto (great deal on them a few years ago when Invictia bought Glycine and cleared out the pre Invicta stock)...

    Oly 4/3 best lens for blackwater ....

    The 60 can be slower to focus than the 30, but recently brought my Old Em-5 in OLY housing to Bali where it will be staying for a young dive instructor that wants to develop their UW photography skills and can't afford a system. Leaving them (long term loan..unless it floods then it's a...

    Silver Medal at the Third Annual Arab Underwater Photography Championship in Hurghada, Egypt

    Really well done! The ole EM-5 is a champ, I literally used with 60mm last night for macro for the last time before handing if off to a young dive instructor to have/use.

    Instructor Professionalism

    That instructor should NOT be teaching. You aren't in a military course, and harassment drills ("it was still "interesting" to have an instructor come up from behind and turn off my primary gas, pull off a fin and remove my mask at the same time") are NOT required to make you confident and...

    Instructor Professionalism

    that instructor is there for his ego, not his students IMHO. That they are also a douche seems the icing on the cake. We all have different teaching styles, and I can be a little tough,(if you aren't where you need to be I will let you know, and we won't advance until you are ready and I can...

    Rob Stewart Investigation

    All if the legal aspects of filming also would have involved the required Visa's for the Canadian folks. Avoiding any government oversight seems to be a thing... This case, the Triton sub, Mills case, etc There may be something that the dive industry should be reflecting on, they won't.

    agree 100% with you. This is why design choices and intended use (and manuals) are so important.

    Thank you Simon, I remain as I have been for many years, in awe of your knowledge and jealous of your ability to communicate complex subjects in a manner that is easily understood.

    No, I replied to someone else that was talking about RGBM and BW (who I knew) and he was who I was talking about regards RGBM. Your comprehension is poor. I NEVER said the results you got were fake. Because digging into how BW started to slog about his invented dive history database to try and...

    He also in same period was terribly excited about a new UWATEC computer he was involved in (page 12 where he says that he validated it.. poorly obviously), that bent divers and became a very expensive lawsuit for UWATEC. He was a true innovator, brilliant person who added much to our...

    I believe you feel it is obvious, to many of us that know this subject well and reading your statements and conclusions, we don't agree. It's like you feel you found some magic key in a very old paper quote and are running with it, but excluding everything else. Given that the quote includes...

    Budget strobe for TG-5 + Seafrogs

    some of the strobes do HSS, some just a bit more (UFL3 does 1/200 vs 1/160 with non RC strobes if I recall). The AOI does HSS in RC as does the Backscatter MF2 (made by AOI, but not as powerful and not a semi wide solution solo.. at all) regardless, disagree that is only advantage ,and RC TTL...

    Budget strobe for TG-5 + Seafrogs

    The AOI UCS-Q1RC, OLY UFL3, New Marelux Strobe, Ikelite's with their RC dongle, YS-D3 Duo, MF-2 are all on market and do RC. I may have missed others, that is just off top of head

    Budget strobe for TG-5 + Seafrogs

    oh, it's less in the states ($365 USD). It also does do manual. It's a far better strobe than a YS-03 and I would argue the YS-01 for the use case you described in your OP. Plus if you get into macro (and should with the TG) it has a decent inexpensive snoot. The manual, that shows it does...
