    What is this tiny thing?

    Thats it! So they call these things Ladybugs. New things everyday, eh! Imagine that. And yes, this was in Komodo too. Somewhere near Makassar Reef, I think. Beers all around. Best fishes to everyone.

    Komodo. Haven't seen anything like it. Had me stumped.

    What is this tiny thing?

    Hi, Asking the help of the experts. I was fortunate to be able to snap a photo of this Pygmy Seahorse, but after closer inspection I noticed something even smaller. See here: 34B996FB-226C-4AB3-9002-61938ECF2B16 by boy22ban posted Apr 25, 2019 at 1:05 AM Any ideas what this is? Thanks...

    New Olympus 30mm macro - Any interest divers?

    Thanks for the response. I ask because the macro setup could be an alternative to having wet diopters with the 14-42 EZ.

    New Olympus 30mm macro - Any interest divers?

    In relation to the 30mm lens -- has anyone tried if it will fit in the PT-EP12 for the EPL7, with its stock port?

    Help! Puck Pro, Leonardo, or Zoop?

    Zoop, but if you are willing to stretch the budget just a little more, Oceanic Geo 2.0. Zoop: durable, user replaceable bat, easy to use, reliable, used by a lot of people, familiar in most reputable dive resorts (therefore batteries can be sourced) Geo 2: user replaceable bat, longer bottom...

    Diving in Ngwe Saung, Myanmar?

    I work in Yangon, and am looking to dive in Ngwe Saung which is the nearest and most feasible weekend warrior-type dive destination. Anybody with experience diving in this region? Can you recommend a shop/boat/guide? Is it worth the 6-hour drive? Thanks in advance.

    Wide angle wet lens with PT-EP12 + 14-42 EZ?

    I am afraid I'm still shopping... I don't know if anyone is like me, but I actually have an excel sheet of "permutations" that I look at every now and then -- makes me sort things out. It's starting to look like: Cam: EPL-5 kit + EP-10 Lens: 45 1.8 and 9-18 + zoom gear Port: Athena F100...

    Wide angle wet lens with PT-EP12 + 14-42 EZ?

    This is exactly what I was hoping to see, thanks for the link! Would probably not have found that on my own. I agree that there might be too many issues to be happy with this setup. I can see that not only is the corner sharpness an issue, but the general sharpness and overall IQ suffers...

    Wide angle wet lens with PT-EP12 + 14-42 EZ?

    Thanks as always Interceptor. You actually helped me build my current setup (out in the canon forum), and I believe its upgrade time. I understand you have moved to mirrorless as well...I remember you talking about your LX7 sometime back.

    Wide angle wet lens with PT-EP12 + 14-42 EZ?

    Thanks all. Was excited to see the EM5 deal some time ago, I totally missed the EPL5 deal (I only saw a cheap 2 kit set in Amazon). This changes everything...

    Wide angle wet lens with PT-EP12 + 14-42 EZ?

    Thanks for this Gareth. Did you find focus peaking any useful at all? wow, really?! Are these online stores?

    Wide angle wet lens with PT-EP12 + 14-42 EZ?

    I want to thank everyone in advance for any help. I am trying to upgrade to mirrorless (from Canon S110). The budget for the setup (body, lenses and UW housing) is US$2,000, give or take a few. I already have a strobe, tray and arms. I also have wet wide and macro lenses. I am...

    Best settings for sharks and mantas

    Thanks for the replies! Video it is...wide video to be sure. @scott I cannot thank you enough for managing our expectations, although this is slightly heartbreaking news to be honest. We did not know they weren't there anymore... We will settle for a distant brave loner of a manta...a dark...

    Best settings for sharks and mantas

    I shoot with a Canon S110 in an Ikelite housing. I have 1 strobe and 1 continuous light. I have some experience shooting macro (Nudis for example with 2 Inon UCL 165s) and general wide angle (wrecks for example with a FIX UWL28M52 in ambient light). Its a work in progress for me, but I have...
