Can anyone tell me if the bonded end connectors on fibre optic cables such as the Weefins and the sea and sea are a standard size. i have a Sea and Sea YS02 Strobe and a Fantasea FA6500 underwater housing. With the cable I have you have to attach the ends of the cable to the terminal plugs...

Yes I think I’ll buy a couple of the cheap ones to compare. If they are poor I can buy some better ones after my next dive trip. Cheers

All good points. It's the clamps that are very expensive over here in the UK. Can add a lot to the price.

Hi Just wondering if anyone has any experience of the low price clamps and ball arms available on amazon and eBay. Just setting up a system and it can make a huge difference to cost. On the other hand I’m new to this and don’t want to buy junk. Cheers

I won't Lie I had to google DMF to see what it was. and I'll still have to look at how to use it (What is focus highlighting). I've now bought a Inon UCL-165 for the set up but haven't received it yet. We are off to Lembeh in September so would like to get some practice first. Could you talk me...

Ahh that makes more sense. I wondered what you would film over here.

Thanks Hope your trip over here goes well. Cheers

Hi I'm also in the market for a video Light Just wondering if you have tried it yet and what do you think?

Thanks for that Barmaglot. Also interesting about the focus range of your lens. I just had a look on line at the one you have I see it’s a +13. I think initially I will go for something like a +6 which may be easier to use. Cheers

OK i've made the decision and bought a Sony A6500 mirrorless camera. I've only ever used a compact underwater, so this probably won't be my only request for advice. I'm now looking at the Fantasea fa6500 housing and flat port and zoom gear for the 16 to 50mm lens. My first question is, if this...

Thanks for that. I’ll have a look at the 6400 too Cheers

Hi all Looking for advice. Up until now I’ve only ever used a compact system (canon G15 in a Fantasea housing) I’m now thinking of an upgrade and have been looking at a Sony A6500, still in a Fantasea housing but adding a wet lens diopter. The thing that has me confused is the lens options. For...

Hi we are both diving in air so PP02 should be the same. With regards to depth I've noticed it between 18 and 22 meters. We did some deeper dives yesterday around 30 meters but we're ascending before it became an issue so not sure what her computer was reading. The difference in computers is...

Hi Until recently I was diving with my 8 year old Suunto Vyper and my wife on her Gekko. When she had the Gekko our NDL was broadly the same. She is now using her new D4i and it seems to be giving her between 10 and 15 minutes more bottom time. Not sure why. They are both Suunto, It's the same...

Hi I'm also looking at this boat. Did you find anything out about it? cheers Smudger

Just been having a look at them on The web. Might make an enquiry get some prices. It can't hurt. My dive buddy's sitting here nodding her head. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Hi Hintermann. I agree with a lot of what you say. I was not overly impressed with Emirates to Manila the planes were a bit dirty and the in flight entertainment on 3 of the 4 legs was abysmal. Also the lay over times in Dubai can be far too long, 7 or 8 hours are the norm, however there are a...

Has anyone dived the Red Sea in Feb. Thinking about a trip and trying to get an idea what to expect. Used to a 3mm wet suit. Would this be Ok. Thinking about El Gouna or Marsa Alam. I'm sure the air temp would be Ok it's the sea temp I'm concerned about. Any thoughts Sent from my iPad using...

We visited Manado a couple of years ago and Puerto Galera last year. The diving around Bunaken was Very good mostly wall diving and sandy bottoms but very enjoyable. It's the least touristy place I've been to which brings its own charm. Lots of life and healthy coral some quite deep dives. I...

We've been to Bali twice on Singapore air and found them excellent. We've also been in the same predicament. One year we let the offer prices go and missed our opportunity. The next year we booked when the offers came on and worried about the accommodation later. I still think there could be...
