It happend. In Nouvelle Calédonie a diver was injured the third of january REQUIN. Le "craquage de bouteille", une pratique mise en cause dans l'attaque d'un plongeur le 3 janvier en Calédonie With plastic bottle he made noise like the noise when a shark is eating a fish... The shark came and ... :( Translation "Avoiding "an overreaction" and "unnecessary fear" "I am testifying today because accurate data is the only way for organizations and the government of New Caledonia to make informed decisions about shark management," the witness defended. I want to avoid an overreaction from the authorities, such as the killing of sharks, which often occurs when the facts of an incident are misunderstood. Making the truth known also helps protect the local diving industry from the economic damage that unnecessary fear can cause." "A very dangerous way of proceeding" In another testimony, a couple of Australian tourists claim to have witnessed the cracking of a bottle during a dive in New Caledonia in October. "One thing we observed was that the instructors had brought plastic bottles underwater during the dives so that they could create this cracking sound in the water and to attract sharks. "It's a very dangerous way of proceeding," warns the man, "because we don't know exactly how sharks can react to this." "I think there's a difference between trying to deliberately trigger a certain behavior," she adds, "instead of just observing how the animal evolves in its natural environment." Like "a devoured fish skeleton" Unlike shark feeding, this sensory stimulation technique is not prohibited in New Caledonia. Claude Maillaud has been cataloguing attacks for years. Asked about this, he believes that this could partly explain the attack on January 3. "It could reproduce the cracking of a fish skeleton that is devoured by a shark."

I searched this picture made with the RF100... Distance 7 m like the frog fish left This distance is near the reality not the frog fish

The distance are really not right. It change from 1 m to 4, 7, 18 and infinite I don't know how it is calculate... Water, lens and MFO-3 bring the exif to madness The left picture is 4m the right 1 m....

I browsed through the pictures in LR. The one right is without the MFO-3 (Canon RF100) The subject to big it was a shot to make test. The left one is (sure to 99%) with the MFO-3... more or less the same distance as the other. The frgofish moved a little

I made some shots during last trip... but to be honest I don't know wich with and witch without the MFO-3 I can try to find some but without waranty. But if you have time, I'll have some after 10 days diving in Lembeh next month.

It's a self made flip I'm searching some pictures wait a mnute

Bienvenue sur waterpixel @tailwind_marseille Before you continue your research, it is urgent to discuss with your banker (and/or your wife) to explain that you are going to have some reckless expenses. There right away, then very regularly over the next years. If the discussion goes well you can continue your research. I speak from experience

Better I don't know but easier for sure

I'm using a R5 with the RF100 I have also the SMC-1 impossible to use for the picture I take with the MFO-1 The range is from near to 1 m or a little bit more. I don't really know.. That mean I can put it and make mear 95 % of the dive with it... some times I change (Flip x3) for the SMC-1 or since last trip the MFO-3. Next month 10 days in Lembeh with this configuration... the first intensive test with the 3 lenses mounted together. Last year in Lembeh I was absolutly happy with the MFO-1 The RF100 give me "out of the box" a mx magnification of 1-1.4 it is enough. for near 100% of my shoot.

For me (Canon RF 100) the main utility is to have a reduced range of focus. It's important for me to shoot small subjects with some element in the background. If the focus go in the back it is difficult or impossible to get it back near. The MFO change my life... I win a lot of time for some pictures --> better results, faster more time for other shoots

We triying to have fun together... We explain what we want to the guide... some macro... and some bigger/coral/ fishes Sometimes my wife don't make the third dive.... --> I'll make 100 macro And some time I accept to make wide angle dive... @Kristin thanks you for your remark it's an important point. Booth need to have fun.

Totaly with Tim

99% ???? I'm right ? 🤣

I took tim eto retrieve the 3D STL from my bloat for the Isotta H117 port

Hi my wife didn't make photo, she make some vidéo with a gopro... The situation... she always stay with the guide (or not if she find something to film) and I make my own life. We never had problems. Ok I lost my wife and the guide one time only one time. How did we dive... I always know in wich direction they go/are. I take my photo... if i take to long for that my wife wait and she turn the torsches on... It is easy for me to go in the good direction and find her again. If I didn't see her.. I make some noise with my stick on the floating arm... and turn my to light on... Make some rotation on 360°... It works really good The main problem is when the guide help me for very tiny macro... my wife is really not patient ... (I will no say more... 🤣)

My experience is that over the time I had problems... 100 dive ok... 200 ok and one time. I allways put epoxy over the 3D parts to avoid some water going in the piece. I have an other difference I made the 3D model empty and only made a smal wall. The target is to have less weight. In some case when the wall/structur is not strong enough --> I had some old float arm who break... ( water go in, and a big air bubble go up... 😱) but no more problem the arm didn't break in 2 parts. I made on the place where the float breaked some reinforcement my current float have now over 2 year and 200 dives

Bienvenue sur Waterpixel. and

A rule i a rule... nothing more to say... and a rule is the same for ALL 🍻

I was 2 times at Filitheyo The Manta station is far from the island and not allways theyre. Not sure this is a good destination for a family.. OK for snorkeling you can see some turtle and fishes They resort have a pool and the restaurant wasn't bad... but my experience are 10 years ago... the things change.

I have more or less the same as @Dave_Hicks but with flip but the idea is exactly the same

February + Bali hummm not the good season I believe August is ok.

Plancton --> "bad" visibilty... but Mantas At Hanifaru the manta are present in october/november ... the weather is not the best

@kalani An idea... Hanifaru Bay in Maldives.... Hanifaru Bay_1 | PMT à Hanifaru Bay, Maldives | Hugues Brun | Flickr Hanifaru Bay 2021/09 | Flickr We do this and one or 2 years after it was a "Must do again"... That's in snorkeling
