Absolutely fantastic photos. I was in the Maldives for the first time in February and was amazed about the fish life. Was also able to see a whale shark for the first time in my life. Thanks for sharing.

If I was newly certified, I would never agree to do such a deep dive. I would specifically have asked the dive shop for an easy shallow dive or I would not have gone out with that group or dive operation. Would definitely had hired a private DM if it was not possible to go with the group. I...

:rofl3: You wish :rofl3: Honestly, thanks again. I'm going to print this thread and talk a little with my brother. He is really good at these things so I hope he can explain more to me. And I will check out the online guide also. I hope I can manage to get some photos. It's great that the...

Thank you for all your advices. I'm not sure if I am experienced enough (as a diver and photographer) to go with full manual. When I will be ready to shoot, the fish will be long gone and I might have lost a little control of my bouyancy:D. Can you use RAW format and underwater setting...

Again thank you all! I got a really thin manual with the camera, just showing a few basics. But there was a CD that I need to study. Agree with you, that I was kind of lazy and I do hate manuals:D. Also need to play with the camera more. The condensation problem I noticed in St John in...

Thank you Gilligan! I will definitely check your website to get more help. Can you tell me where I change to RAW format on the camera? I can't believe how great you guys are helping me. And here I was thinking everyone was celebrating Christmas:D.

Great advices! Really appreciate it and I guess it will be sufficient with the jpeg while snorkeling. But I do want to test RAW format at least once when diving or snorkeling, just to see how it works. I do have photoshop elements but am fairly new to that too. Have just started to use it. I...

OK, now I found the white balance and the underwater setting. It was a piece of cake:D thanks to you. But where do I find the RAW format setting? How much memory does the RAW format take? I have a 2 GB and a 1 GB memorycard. Maybe I need to buy a 8 GB as well? Sorry for all the questions...

Thank you Ramsy, I will check it out immediately.

Thank you Peterbj7. I have to look into these settings. I have not used the RAW format yet, neither have I used it in my uw case underwater. I have just shot regular photos on land and tried different motives. Having a trip coming up where I can dive and snorkel, I thought I should really...

OK, so no specific underwater setting then? I better try and find the setting for the RAW format, because that's also new to me. The instructions were not that informative, but I guess I need to get that CD into the computer and read it. I was being lazy I guess:D. Merry Christmas!

Hi! Just wonder if the Canon Powershot G11 has a specific underwater setting or do you use the auto setting? I recently bought the camera and I haven't found any underwater setting, so I need a little help. Thank you for your help.

I love both Virgin Gorda and St John. I have been diving around both islands, and so far I think diving around the BVI's has been better than around St John. The Rhone is a must of course, but the Dogs, the sites at Ginger island and also Wreck Alley is really good. One of the most surpricing...

Hi nabo! I have the same problem as you have, with a DIN regulator. I bought an adapter at home and I always bring when I travel. It wasn't expensive, but I don't remember exactly how much it was. So get one before you leave. Better to be safe than sorry.

Great photos. Thanks for sharing. I love the scorpionfish picture.

Thanks. All my pictures are taken with that camera (which I by the way is very pleased with). They don't make that model anymore, so I hope mine will last long. The only pic my husband took that I posted is, the spotted trunkfish. He has a Canon Powershot D10 (that doesn't need an uw housing...

OK, good then I know . I have found that 800 usually is fine on forums (and I wasn't fishing for comments this time:D).

Are you talking about my pictures in the trip report or RoatanMans above? I downsized mine to 800 pixels before I uploaded them, but maybe that wasn't enough`.

Thanks for all the replies. I don't blame CCV for what happened. It can happen anywhere anytime. I still think it was the lobster but we'll never found out and honestly I don't care either. It was people outside our group getting sick as well. It was at least two others that I know of that...
