Perfect exposure, sharp focus, great color saturation and contrast (the blacks are really crisp, like film). The 8mp, the sharp optics of the 8080 plus your talent really makes the difference! Great work!

How do you trigger your strobes? I thought the PT023 had problems with this.

Where have you been?
Have you given up SCUBA for a more challenging way to get nice pics ?

Thanks all for the nice words!! Yeah, I got to the dive site and my sinuses were not cooperating so I opted for a snorkel while the others went diving. The great part about this site is the large number of beautiful clams in the 2-5 meter zone.

Victor: Since the PT023 allows for the internal flash to fire, I use a fiber optic cable to trigger my Sea & Sea strobe. The trick is to use Manual mode since the Program mode will not allow you to go into the slave function on the flash to set it up properly.
