    Mares EU customer service beyond dreadful

    I know it's an old post but still wanted to give another update. The third Drysuit i got was the newer XR1 NTS it is only slightly different but all changes seem to be for the bad.

    2 divers dead in Dominican Republic (Feb 9th)

    i read that, and that's why i added the second part: "on other newspapers it is reported that diving there was possible only after showing certifications". which i really much hope corresponds to reality as i knew one of the two divers (and no, i don't know what certifications he held) ... :(

    Sealife Micro HD 32--good for a newbie?

    The sealife has a BIG advantage, no worries about flooding, that's a lot. I've been to Sharm with mine, without lights, and (even with the problems listed below) am VERY satisfied. Nonetheless: It looks like i'm the only one having had this problem but the memory bank inside the camera moved...
