Hello! How do people deal with color banding issues on the blue water areas? I understand it's a common problem on shots with skies, and for us, divers, shots with blue water. The two solutions I saw so far involve layers in Photoshop (which I don't have), and the other is to add grain in...

Wanting to buy my first drysuit. I'm a female, 5'3" 130 lb. I've been told I have longer legs/shorter torso for my height, but not sure if such precision matters. Shoe size 7.5-8 (street shoes). I think I prefer Trilam over neoprene, but open to both. Would like to get as many accessories with...
