Hi there from Buckinghamshire/UK

February 29, 20242 yr

Hi All,

I'm a UK diver, dive all year round, mostly cold rather than warm waters and try to carry the camera as much as possible but you know when the vis is rubbish and/or the sea conditions are a bit iffy, it's not worth the hassle. Been diving with Olympus Em-5 for the last 10yrs and it just keeps on going and I like the results. Oly housing, Inon FE with 8mm Oly lens and 60mm macro with a couple of diopters from Inon. 2 Inon strobes give me some light. I like to DIY stuff where possible.

Backscatter Nauticam MFO-1, MFO-3, & SMC-3 Underwater Macro Lens Review
Backscatter Nauticam MFO-1, MFO-3, & SMC-3 Underwater Macro Lens Review

RichN · October 22Oct 22

James Emery at Backscatter has published a review and a field video of three Nauticam wet lenses that mount on the same macro port: the MFO-1, the SMC-3, and the MFO-3II. All three are 67mm lenses, so on a flip holder you can move among them on one dive without changing the camera lens. They do different jobs. The MFO-1 is the everyday optic: a little magnification, and a shorter focus range so autofocus stops hunting the water column. The SMC-3 is the super-macro lens, about 2.3:1, for the sma

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

RichN · September 21Sep 21

Underwater camera housings traveling with their corresponding cameras are to be treated as photographic accessories, while dive computers are to be classified as sporting equipment, according to Cozumel tourism officials following meetings with Mexican Customs.
