Hi all I plan to go to Biminy for Hammerhead dives. I heard that it is better to shoot without strobes in these specific dives . (static dives about 10-15 m depth) any expeience or tips ? Thanks

Ok. I could'nt wait - So I took an old random pic with backscatter. Here are the results. Bare in mind that this is an automated process, So I could not control any parameter. I didnt not perform any editing work on the pic - besides the backscatter removal.

As I was optimistic, I asked our friends at Sea&Sea if there had been any updates. Here is the response. Hello Ido, Our parts supplier has been closed since covid-19 pandemic. We had been searching for another supplier in Japan. When upgraded version is launched, we will inform you an official web site, FB and Instagram. We are terribly sorry for your inconvenience. We will keep you updated. sincerely Kaz Okada International Sales Sea & Sea Co., Ltd. 2F,4-8-11 Nagasaki, Toshima-ku, Tokyo 171-0051 Japan Tel: 81-3-5926-9320 Mob:81-80-3276-7203

Thanks

Thanks for sharing this useful information. I have the Nikon 8-15 fisheye. I use it only as a 15mm fisheye. I have the convenient 4.5 inch dome and the 6.5 and 8 dome. The bigger is the batter for this lens....?

How do you know that my dome is small and not in the right position ? I take shots with 6.5 and 8 inch domes with the appropriate extensions rings. I believe that larger domes it will give me results, However the setup that I use is the recommended one by Isotta for this lens.

When I am using my Nikon 14-30 f4 at f11 - f16 with the recommended setup (Dome and extension ring) I still get an anoying blur edges. I have not yet figured out what will happen when I focus slightly before the subject and not directly on it. In contrast, if I am following a moving object, I will always focus on the subject. I have read good reviews about the Sea&Sea lens for improving this issue.

Now there are several options (like https://lefeet.com) that allow us to mount the scoote on the air tank. This can be quite practical with underwater camera rig.

This one is great.. and what do you mean by "one of the guides had been bitten by a tiger a week before" ?????
