Allow me to add a few thoughts on the forum structure. When defining the structure of the forum we also considered this hypothesis and then discarded it, at least at the start. The first reason is that for a forum starting from scratch it is better to have a simpler structure and knowing where the majority of users would come from (at least the first few days) we wanted to make them feel comfortable. A complex and detailed structure like SB only works if you have a large number of users, which a new platform does not. A user with a Panasonic or Fuji camera body would almost certainly find himself alone with his questions, whereas we would like the forum to be as inclusive as possible and for users to be enriched with information even if not directly relevant to their equipment and mode of use. Less specific sections encourage the exchange of news and the discovery of information. (Serendipity). Not least the fact that the topics often go slightly OT and so a thread on a specific Canon kit, with the addition of dozens of comments often ends up giving info that is also very useful for other brands and situations. As @bghazzal pointed out, the board we use has quite sophisticated search functions that can be enhanced through the use of specific tags/labels. In this regard, it will also be the task of us moderators to carry out periodic topic gardening campaigns, adding them where necessary. By the way, in the coming months we will be moving on to a new version of the board that will add more functionality in terms of search and user experience. However, nothing is written in stone and we will try to adapt the forum to the needs of the users. Stay tuned!

Welcome on board!

Glad to see you here then!

Yes, major tech jump but no advantages for uw shooters and reading some review, the sensor is noisier. Moreover, digging through the lines of Sony leaflet, I found: Sync speed with "External" flash is 1/500. With base ISO of 250, its the same as 1/200 with ISO 100.

Hello Klaus, Delighted to have you join us!

Welcome on board Fraser!

Nice to have another Mediterranean guy!

Ciao Marcello, welcome aboard. Finally, another Italian. I was beginning to feel lonely and worried.

Alert: Photo troopers from UK are moving en masse on Waterpixels ☺️

My mug is awesome (and it's huge too)

We will see if we can have it as default. We have an Invision board on steroids here 👾

Hi Massimo, I have the signature under account settings > signature https://waterpixels.net/settings/signature/ I was able to add my links. Let me know if it works for you

In the top right-hand corner you have two buttons: All Activity and mark site read Many of us prefer to have an handy Unread Content button which only displays unread content instead of all activities on the site, i.e. also those already read. How to proceed: Click on the label All activity Below the two buttons, now you have a bar with several filters to filter the content you see on your page. From the Read Status filter, select Content I haven't read You now have the option of saving this setting at the bottom left of the filter bar. Click on Save as a new stream Save it with a name as Unread Content Now save it as your default stream Finally you have a new button/label in the upper right corner. That's it!

I'll pick you up then, we'll go to Oman together

I will write a small guide

Welcome on board! It is currently 12 degrees Celsius in Rome and the sea water is 15 degrees. I wish I was in Oman... 🥶

For store quirks we will give you feedback shortly. In the meantime I can try to answer you about the items in the store. To get started right away, we have implemented the store in a simple but effective manner. The prices on the site are in USD but before you pay you will receive an invoice with the correct final amount including shipping costs and possibly customs fees. To avoid customs fees, gadgets are produced and shipped from three geographical areas: USA, UK and EU. In Australia the gadgets were delivered from California. I am in Italy and bought a t-shirt and a mug which arrived from spain and Lithuania respectively. So no customs. the sizes of the t-shirts look USA to me. P.S. the mug is awesome 😍

I see that there is a nice little band from the UK

Welcome on board!

Hi Wolfgang welcome! This place is looking more and more like home.

Unrelated to underwater photography but thank you for all your hard work with it. It makes possibile to use our dive computers out of the manufacturer's walled garden. I've been a long time Subsurface user!

Glad to see you here!

Welcome on board Jef! Out of curiosity, are you Jef of libdivecomputer?

Hi Burhaneddin, quite an underwater career! I would love to see some photos of that part so far south-east of the Mediterranean. I have been passionate about naval history and wrecks for many years. Libya is full of unexplored World War II wrecks. Many Italians sunk during the famous Battle of Convoys. In that area there are so many angel sharks and rays that have disappeared in other areas. What a sea! Wild Mediterranean.
