Why can't you repair your Sea&SEA? It's a case with buttons, o rings, and maybe some bolt-on electronics.

The CMC is made for crop sensor cameras. The SMC for full frame. Therefore your sensor will determine which one. What are you looking to accomplish? You've laid out three different elements. Getting close: this is related to the lens focal length. If anything, you're further away, than say a 60mm macro, because 90mm is s telephoto lens. You say infinity focus. Did you mean minimum focusing distance? Focus depth miniscule. Do you mean depth of field? The combination of macro photography, a tele lens, and distance from subject, means depth of field is sliver thin. This is physics. Adding a diopter (cmc or smc) will significantly reduce depth of field. What's your struggle?

That's a good point. Data (histogram) is unaffected by these type of variables.

When I do this, I line the bottom of the box with this cheap folding foam. It reduces rattle and vibrations. Here, they sell it in Italy too. https://www.amazon.it/Foldable-Folding-Cuchion-Kneeler-Camping/dp/B00B70MJG0/ref=sr_1_7?__mk_it_IT=ÅMÅŽÕÑ&crid=4550NR0UHMAH&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.8TtwLWRJVZelEmyD4Hs8oABmnVByCCqWOREWXgc7OPv6wARLDvuqTK6qf3EdTo5ccReWvbUULOpEryHIWDYgNAevdITRS0ZldEvTSnGC15xo7EcHtFxR01eAZ2fZ4ucuP04m4W7xrszZ2R0tOHUAg_nZLzo-5IS9ziU1YficVTpOp7LVX5qKnvd0_lz6RIrKWikJrgKSNHKhrq8cwTS8RX0wzNhUlMldfGXepJZ6fsr_aR6Qj7MMagrN4bnLsdjvtoKrwvoD64A5PblKpVviQqpQwiB4KFTvmcOvfDGNup8.gXKVhLAHjZph2VAMqPQ2WOmx37zLoc7AuQ6MKTpMcFw&dib_tag=se&keywords=Folding+foam&qid=1725810642&sprefix=folding+foam%2Caps%2C297&sr=8-7

Hmm my view finder brightness was not on auto. It was set to maximum brightness on manual (+2). Could me setting it to maximum brightness replicated the "auto" issue?

Argh I think this was my issue. The exposure levels I reviewed underwater looked correct but at home they were drastically under exposed. I'll check this setting. Attached is resized jpg. Full raw images here; https://quickshare.samsungcloud.com/sCsx8GjV5CmY

Thanks, gents. How does the Inon for nauticam model fare in comparison?

Hello everyone. What's the difference between: 1- the old and new Nauticam angle viewfinders 2- 32º/1:1 vs. 42º/0.8:1 I have a Nauticam housing for the Sony A7Rv. I'm considering a 45°. Would an Inon unit work? Thank you

I was reading a tg-6 vs tg-7 thread and responded here by mistake.

None. Save money and get a tg6. Preferably used.

Excellent. Inspirational. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Jens, What did you end up doing?

You'll need to perfect maneuvering the strobes at distance. You'll be further away for many pictures.

One must turn on wireless flash in the camera settings in order to use HSS with a Backscatter MF-2. Sample: ISO 200, 1/500, f/6.3

May I kindly ask that you elaborate, Chris. Thanks to everyone for contributing on this thread. I will be back with more specific queries 🙂

Hello everyone. Let's say I have an SMC-1 and a Sony 90mm. Can the diopter work at all lens focus ranges? Or does the diopter begin to work (come into focus) at the 1:1 focus range of the lens? Thank you.

Willing to sell the camera body separately?

I am trying to figure out how to turn on HSS in the MF-2 and Sony A7Rv.

So using a Sony A7RV and S-turtle 2 trigger, how do I set it up in HSS mode? Balazs said no need to setup software. But there is a B.Scatter MF-2 option that I cannot select for some reason.

Figured it out via @Barmaglot I was setting up the flash wrongly. Strangely, I've never done this in 3 years of owning it. I did the initial setup with more than a single test fire that day. Here is a snippet from back scatter explaining this: https://youtu.be/-xxarKWIRm4?t=15m8s

What's the fastest shutter speed for the strobe and a Sony A7Rv in HSS mode? Thank you.

Yes, took the test shot. Nothing happens. Well, flash only on second shot. Contacted Balaz, for manual mode, nothing to setup on the trigger. Tried another flash from Sea and Sea, works workout issue. Yes, this cable worked a few days ago with the same strobe and trigger. It is on single shooting mode, not burst. But how does that mess up the strobe?

Hi Chris. What settings do you reckon I should change? I cannot think of any. Flash mode is in fill-in. The S-TURTLE is in manual mode. Thy MF-1 doesn't have any settings to change. It turns on, then there's the flash strength dial. There's no TTL or smart mode on the MF-1.

Hello everyone Sony a7rv Backscatter mf-1 S-TURTLE TTL trigger Flash on camera set to fill-in mode The flash doesn't go off on first shot It only goes off if I do two quick consecutive shots and only on the second shot Ideas? Thank you
