I have recently started diving again after a hiatus of 20 or so years . In the old days cameras on sticks did not exist. In modern diving times I sometimes have cameras on sticks thrust into my field of vision when I am trying(or was trying) to observe something. In addition, I sometimes see divers chase larger animals, poking their camera-on-a-stick as close as possible to the seemingly fleeing turtle, whale shark, or whatever. What is current scuba etiquette for cameras-on-a-stick? Are there any scuba operators that advertise: "no cameras on sticks"? If there are any, I want to dive with their boat. Thanks.
