Hello from Canada!
Hi! I'm Sean, I'm based in Vancouver and have ~200 dives under my belt. Currently a lapsed divemaster and hopefully by the end of the year an instructor and scientific diver. I shoot with an Olympus OM-D E-M1 I hermit crabbed from a local retired diver, been a fun learning curve devouring books and old episodes of the UWPS. Right now I just post interesting shots I get locally and try to tow the line between photographer and memer. I'm hoping in the coming years to be able to capture some conservation moments in the greater Vancouver area and see some cool things around the world. Still never dove in water >20 C but that's changing soon! Excited to marginally reduce my lurking and maybe get some criticism.

Members Showcase: how the monthly cycle worksAt the heart of home is something the community already does well: enjoy each other’s photographs and choose which ones deserve the spotlight. Here’s how to take part: Upload to ShowcaseEach calendar month, you can add up to five images to Showcase. Member albums stay personal and unlimited; Showcase is the shared monthly pool. Review ShowcaseOpen Member Showcase Review, browse the photographs, and like those you’d love to see featured. You can also pass and move on to the next image. Your likes determine the results. See the monthly placementsOn the 1st of each month, we tally the previous month’s Showcase likes to determine first, second, and third place. First place earns Members Choice and leads the home-page hero. Second and third place rotate through the same space, each with full photographer credit. The results come directly from members’ likes. A quieter month may have fewer placements, but every month is an opportunity to discover someone’s work and help it reach more people. Upload a few favorites, spend a little time browsing, and give the photographs you admire a like. Together, you decide which images welcome everyone to WaterPixels. Start here: Review Showcase Partners, affiliates, and community supportWe’re pleased to welcome OM System as our first affiliate partner, and we’re working to bring more affiliates and partners on board. The refreshed site also introduces more advertising opportunities for brands that want to reach and support the underwater imaging community.

Backscatter Strobe Test 2026
This is really a great resource to compare the different strobes. The reputation of Backscatter rised a lot on my personal scale...👍 I have a question on the circles in the test images: to wich angles of view do they correspond? Thanks, Wolfgang

Design for a Universal Dome Port Hard Cap
The WACP-C port is big enough with that float that it would probably make more sense to replicate the Nauticam design with a spring clip on the inside. But I would likely need the port to do it. Unless it has identical dimensions to the WWL-C, which I have.

- Design for a Universal Dome Port Hard Cap
A cap needs to hold on to the port. My standard rubber design grabs the overhang of port with bungees. I would need the outside diameter of the port and distance from the tallest leaf of the shade to the underhang. And a photo of the original shade.- Confirmed: Sony Fisheye Zoom 8-14mm
Can anyone please check whether the Viltrox 2x TC is compatible with this new fisheye lens (I heared the prodrudingf element of the Viltrox TC is smaller compared to tjhe Sony TC)? Thanks, WolfgangLobo Del Mar joined the community- GoPro Mission 1 Series

And what about 16:9 videos i hope you accept some criticism 😀, but there some reddish area and blow highlights- GoPro Mission 1 Series
- Confirmed: Sony Fisheye Zoom 8-14mm
Cheers @Simon Pierce ! You and I (and my wife) met (and Andrea) and dived in Moçambique some 20 years ago (G we were young) when we were doing a piece on Tofo. Great fun and exciting. And can Nikon do something similar now, please!- Design for a Universal Dome Port Hard Cap
I have not lost mine yet, but would like the same for a WACP-C. I do not have technical calipers, but the dimensions seem to be about: 5.75" as the outer diameter of the lens shade 1.75" as the height of the lens shade @Dave_Hicks as one of the resident 3D pros, is that all that is needed for the design? Thanks!- Insta360 X6 - game over
There is only one for X6 and that is Insta's own - with lenses.- insta360 X5 Dive Case Pro vs. Standard Dive Case – Is the Size Really Worth It?
The big difference is not so much in the housing as in the camera lenses. You must have all seen that you have to replace them, and they even give you a kit with a glove. They are two different technologies. The videos I saw are actually perfect. I would sell the whole X5 kit right away... These shillfluencers are priceless 😄 https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dcz5LRWhIK0/?stkn=bWowZG82MzVkdDA= - Design for a Universal Dome Port Hard Cap
