Retra Pro Max feel good vibe w/o booster?
Maybe the answer is the Backscatter Atom strobe? Smaller than any Retra, more powerful than an Inon, good battery life and excellent snooting/macro capabilities while retaining enough ommph for Wide Angle.

The guides say me allways the same, they are parasites

By the way, there is a small hole at the middle of that cap to allow air to vent.

DIY CMC-2 cover
I’ve been wanting a simple, reliable cover for my CMC‑2 on the Nauticam flip adapter—something I can keep on during entries/exits to protect the lens, and then remove and stash easily once I’m underwater. Since I don’t have a 3D printer (or the CAD skills to design a custom cap), I decided to improvise. With a little help from Google Gemini, this is what I came up with. The cover is made from a 70 mm vinyl end cap, trimmed down so the depth matches the CMC‑2. Inside, I wove bungee to create four small “tabs” that snap under the top ledge of the lens body. That gives the cap a positive grip instead of relying on friction alone. I also added a parking loop on the hinge—just an extra layer of security in case the cover pops off before I have a chance to clip it to a D‑ring at the start of the dive. Any thoughts or suggestions for improvement are welcome.

What are these spirals at the dwarf gobi?
The photo shows a dwarf gobi (Pleurosicya micheli) from Mafia Island/Tansania. It has attached two spirals at its side (I have seen such spirals at these dwarf gobies occasionally aready before). What is it (eggs, parasites)? Thanks, Wolfgang Sony A7R5; Sony 90mm f/2.8 macro lens; 1* Backscatter MF-2 flash with snoot; 1/200s; f/20; ISO100.

Retra Pro Max feel good vibe w/o booster?
I just am at a loss. I really do not like the large size of the Maxi but I really, really do not like the price of the Pro Max! And my Inon S220 strobes are just little power houses. Will these Maxi units really give me more wide angle punch and allow shots over white sand stopped down and CFWA sun balls that my S220 strobes struggle with? And big animals for a Maldives upcoming trip?

Backscatter Miniflash adapter for Atom Strobe
How difficult would it be to adapt to a Z240?
-
Backscatter Miniflash adapter for Atom Strobe
I tried an early version but had 2 problems: 1. I did not make the adapter suficiently eccentric so the spotting light was very weak - it is a lot stronger with the maximised eccentric offset. 2. As you warned! due to the screws being too long I managed to trash the optical element ☹️ I will keep going with the Inons until I burn out the tubes (which I managed to do on quite a few 240's) then I suspect a jump to 'hybrid' flashes will happen. Just keeping my fingers and toes crossed that I will be able to get out to Indonesia in June.

Sea & Sea 230mm Acrylic Dome N120 Port
Recently had it professionally serviced, where all internal o-rings were replaced. Some minor scratches (like any acrylic dome) that have no impact on image quality. The only time they show up is when shooting directly into the sun on the above water half when doing split shots. I will include an acrylic polishing kit if you want to buff them out completely. $270 + Shipping

Funny thing is the camera and the lens are the only two things I do not have. This would be awsome to sell all of it at once to one person instead of having to part it out

First Liveaboard Trip: Is a Personal Rinse Tank Overkill?
I have used salt water exactly like that before.
-
First Liveaboard Trip: Is a Personal Rinse Tank Overkill?
If you can't get fresh water, use salt water, what you are trying to avoid is the water drying on the housing. Leave a little water in to carry off and back to your accommodation and give it a proper rinse there. I think the water gets pretty salty in some of the onboard rinse tanks I've seen on dive boats.

TPU for AMS is indeed very stiff (68d) and not suitable for this use case. You need to get a TPU 90 or 95A which are much softer, any brand will do.

Dave, I printed your connectors from Maker World which came out fine except the TPU parts; mine were very stiff. What brand fiber do you use? I bought Bambu Lab's 'TPU for AMS' and I am not pleased with its stiffness. Ben

First Liveaboard Trip: Is a Personal Rinse Tank Overkill?
I carried the camera by hand on the way to and from the boat. As for the water for the cooler bag, Aldora was nice enough to bring me a big jug of fresh water every day to pour into it. The camera obviously went in the bag while on board.

Gopro13 Gopro Labs Firmware (testing underwater)
I always use Davinci YRGB..its much simpler to use... but the configurations are flexible depending what you want output or the project requirements In Non-Color Managed YRGB: You apply the plugin to normalize footage to Rec 709 manually. In YRGB Color Managed: To use the plugin, you must set the clip's Input Color Space to "Same as Timeline" and set the project's input DRT to "None" to avoid double-management, as explained in the GP-Tune Tutorial.
