I saw that announcement too and wondered about it. Since it has been quite some time since I have held a Sony camera, much less dived with one, have they solved their underwater water white balance issue that caused an ugly green cast to all my old videos?

No, I just have a shortcut to the Forums section on my browser that I hit, then scroll down to look at the bolded categories for new content.

Can it be made visible from the forums? I pretty much only go straight to the forums page, but do like to browse what's for sale.

I have been working on designing a tripod for 3D printing that uses ball end arms for the legs. I have one done but have not gotten it in the water yet to test (although it works on land where the rig is even heavier than in the water, so I suspect that it will be strong enough). Since it hasn't been tested properly, I have not posted it to Thingiverse or MakerWorld yet, but I probably should.

Nicely done, especially for a first video. You are correct, macro video is challenging, which is largely why I keep trying to get better at it. I probably shoot 5 or 6 hours of video to get a good 20 minutes or so of usable material. Lots of material on the cutting room floor as you say.

Very nice, thanks for sharing

I also have the Olympus 60 mm macro lens, and it has become my favorite lens underwater.

I have this exact set up and really love it for shooting video. Someone will get a good deal. Good luck with the sale.

Great photos, thanks

Thanks, that's what I was expecting. Scaling would have been too easy, and it never works that way. Thanks for all your design efforts, and explanations.

I haven't even started playing with this file yet, but if I wanted to use it for an N85-Macro port 65, is there a simple scaling (like 85%) or would it require a redesign?

If those rumors are all true, I might look into one as a spare body.

It is amazing how far the technology has come, and how inexpensive the machines are now.

I have a Bambu X1-Carbon, but if I was buying now, as @Dave_Hicks says, the Bambu Labs X2D would probably be at the top of my list. One of the nice things about the Bambu Labs products is that you are buying into a whole ecosystem that all work well together. I would plan on buying one or two (at a minimum) AMS units as well, especially if you think that you might want to print any multi-color designs.

Perhaps he needs to pump it a few more strokes so that changes temperature don't cause the red light. I usually give my (Nauticam) vacuum system a couple of pumps past when the light turns green.
