Just joined, I'm based on Bellarine Peninsula not too far from Melbourne. Use a Sony A7V in an Isotta housing and do shore dives that we are lucky enough to have a variety near us. Thanks

Cozumel Officials Clarify Customs Treatment of Dive Computers and Underwater Camera Housings

RichN · September 21Sep 21

Over 50 and still diving? (Go on, admit it....)

On a recent dive trip I met someone who is writing a dissertation on people who are 50+ and diving. If you are interested in contributing, the following is a link to a simple questionnaire which takes about 5 minutes to complete.
