Welcome gbdiver! Great to have you with us.

Yep, very sad. But good for Peter! It’s been a terrific resource. Maybe someone should offer to pick it up…..

Ahhhhh, I’ve been there too. I felt so daft when I was told the fix. Doh! 🤣

Hi Nemrod I’ve been using Retra since 2020. Yes, pricey but I’ve never regretted the purchase for a second. I’ve gone through various iterations and now have the ProMax with the Booster. They are a very neat package and not much larger than the venerable Inon Z220/240. The Booster is especially ergonomically neat and a much better battery change arrangement than the SuperCharger. On use, I find using an LSD snoot - which I do almost constantly for macro - the Boosters are essential. I often have the power cranked up. I reckon on getting 3 dives - say 400 images - during the day with some power left over with that setup. I find the Boosters useful if I'm shooting into the sun a lot with wide-angle and using HSS. In those circumstances I often have the power setting pretty high. However, on bog-standard wide-angle shots, although I have the Booster in situ (why wouldn’t you?), battery life is significantly longer. No, with APS-C the Retras are not overkill. I’m shooting a Nikon D500. I’ll happily admit to being a Retra fanboy. An excellent product that delivers power and quality in a manageable package with excellent accessories and terrific customer support.

Great to have you with us, Lithium. Well done finally joining up! A warm welcome to Waterpixels.

Hmmmmm, this is odd. We're not aware of any outages........

Not much of that sounds fun, George. Very glad to hear the surgeries were successful. I hope the mice enjoyed their gourmet snack. Little rascals! And, to top that, a very warm welcome to Waterpixels. Great to have you with us. Best wishes

Hi Robert! A warm welcome to Waterpixels. Ahhh yes, I know that warm water vacation diver feeling all too well. I just sold my dry suit...... We hope you really enjoy the forum. Good to have you with us. Best wishes

I’d happily give it a go. I’ve got around 40k images in LR. Most fish, especially those from the Tropical Western Atlantic (ie Caribbean) plus Bermuda are IDd and keyworded so I can compare results.

...... or taste like one?
