Sony a6500 vs Canon R7
@kalani Can't go wrong with the Canon R7, but consider the R50, too. It’s compact, relatively inexpensive, and Nauticam’s housing is much cheaper than full frame. As for the A6500, I agree with other posters here that the A6400 is a better camera. If you’re shooting stills primarily, you won’t miss the IBIS. If you shoot video you might want better stabilization than what Sony offers. The R7 has better video specs: e.g., 4k 60p versus 4k 24/30p in the A6400. Any A6xxx camera before the A6600 also has that tiny W series battery, much improved with the A6600 and A6700.

WaterPixels Shop Open!!
The orange and yellow t-shirts run a bit small. It’s either that or my man boobs are bigger than I thought.

Float arms, which brands provide good quality at reasonable price?
I second @Dave_Hicks . Flexible, relatively inexpensive, and last for years.

OM-D E-M5 mark III vs OM-D E-M10 IV
I actually quite liked the 12-50mm, though it had its detractors. Nauticam came up with a solution for its “macro,” and I thought the lens was pretty good for fish portraits and the like. I never used it with the WWL-1 though, and I always wished it were wider. I had an EM1 mark II. As for macro, the 60mm should be a consideration, too. It worked well in that funky 12-50 Nauticam port just fine. Two lenses, one port - always a good thing. With a WWL wet lens, you would have wide, medium distance and macro covered. Best, Craig

FS: Nauticam Sony NA-A7RV housing, vac valve and LED trigger, pristine
Things are clearly very strange in the USA right now. Apologies.

Old Wet lens new camera: Inon UWL-G140 SD to gopro 13, how?
I hope you can make that work. I haven’t looked into it in a while, but it seemed easiest to go for the Backscatter Flip filters, though there are likely better solutions out there.

Question about an older sea&sea strobe
@JapanDiver We have people on this site who can provide much better information, but I would check these things: 1) make certain you can hear the capacitor charging, 2) that a flash is transmitted through the fiber cable and 3) there is nothing blocking light transmission to the sensor on the flash. Also, make certain you are using the right plug at the underside of the strobe. Alternatively, you can use the 5-pin cable if you’re motivated, to see if that triggers the strobe. buena suerte, Craig

O ring maintenance question
I tend to pull the o rings after every day of diving on my camera housing and Inons. I tend not to do that with focusing and video lights. I do mostly shore diving, and it’s hella sandy around here. I also tend to feel grit, debris and imperfections on the rings more easily than I can see them.
