Based in the US PNW, have been diving since 1996. Some cold water (Puget Sound, BC, PNW freshwater lakes), cool water (Australia). Mostly warm...Caymans, Bonaire, Hawaii, Solomons, Thailand, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Fiji, Philippines. Have hung up the cold water fins, and it's been all warm water for over a decade. Took a UW Photo course at Grand Cayman on a Nikonos V, but had dragged along a Hi8 Sony camcorder and a midget housing. After the class ended, shot video the rest of the trip, and it's been video ever since. Have gone through at least four video systems, finally working my way up to 4K with a Gates-housed AX100. But am going to give still UW photo a run, and let video go.

Aside from diving, do a lot of cycling, gardening, hiking/walking. Worked at Intel for nearly 30 years, and am still a recovering nerd.

Aloha and welcome @rlmalisz Video is more popular that ever. Just sayin.
