Hello all, I have not dove with many people. Mainly my wife, my instructor and briefly a friend who went diving with me and my wife a couple of times. I now find myself in a situation where my wife understandably doesn't plan on diving any more (although she wishes she could), because of a back...

Hi all, I am planning a trip to Kauai in May of 2020. Plan to do some diving in Kauai and Niihau. I have to pick a dive operator to go with and there are several factors that will help me make my choice. I am very safety conscious, so that is the main thing I look at. Of course I care about the...

Hi all, My wife got a new BP & Wing, so I readjusted her old Eclipse for my use. My Eclipse was starting to show some signs of wear and tear. Fit felt the same as mine after my adjustments. I went diving with it and every once in a while if I leaned my head back, I would hit the back of my...

Hello all, I got a new camera housing setup. I now need to add some lift to it to get closer to neutral buoyancy. I am trying to decide if a buoyancy arm (like Kraken floats) that has adjustable buoyancy while diving by letting in water (ballast) would be worth it - over something like just...

Hello, I have a Canon A620 camera in a Canon housing & no strobes. I have always had some focusing issues, which at times is frustrating and can cause me to miss a shot, but at least I have some methods to try to work around it. Of course that is not the point of this post The problem I am...

Does anyone know anything about this adapter from Inon? The URL listed at the end of this post takes you to a site that shows a 67mm mount base for the WP-DC90. I have not been able to find this on any English based web site and not even on the Inon site. However, if I am understanding this...

All, My wife and I were in Maui in June. While we were there we took some time to do both some snorkeling and some diving. On one of the days we were just snorkeling outside of the condo we rented, I noticed something fluttering on the sand below. As I went down to get close enough to take a...

All, I am going diving with my A620 for the first time this weekend. Before now, I have only used a cheap $20 90ft rated film cameras you buy at any ocean side convenient store. I just stuffed those cheap cameras in a pocket that I have glued to my wetsuit. I usually attached a double ender...

Hello all, To try and keep my initial costs down I am planning on getting the canon housing for my A620. I want to make sure I have a housing that I can use the internal flash for some macro shots. I am aware of the Ikelite housing, but it covers the internal flash from what I have read and...

I read on http://www.steves-digicams.com/ review site that the A620 has been tested with SD cards up to 2GB, but it didn't actually say it wouldn't work with SD Cards larger than 2GB. I know there are some 4GB & even 8GB high speed cards out there. Does anyone know if they will work with the...

Hello all, I know this topic has come up a lot, but after reading through other threads, I still haven’t decided what camera to buy, so hence this thread. I have been shopping around for my first underwater digital camera. I wanted to use the same camera I usually do above the water...

Hi all, Just introducing myself. My name is Mike. My wife, Michelle, and I have always wanted to get open water certified. What stopped us before was that we didn't live anywhere close to any diving and we didn't want to just dive on vacations only. The other thing was my wife wanted to get...
