In Topic: Best BCD for New Underwater Photographers

ipepper - I cannot tell from your info where you are located, but if you are in USA, why not get a Zeagle Stilletto? (Or a Zeagle wing set-up)

It's back inflate, extremely customizable and VERY easy to size well for almost every body size.

While all the components may not be made in USA any more, the BCDs are still sewn in Florida - & very easy to get service in the USA if you need it.

I'm not a rep or related to the company in any way - just a very satisfied user of a Zeagle Stilletto since 2007.

 

As many other's have said: the key thing is to try many different styles & brands - who knows, maybe you will love the way the crotch-strap on a wing feels...


In Topic: New Housing "Airlock" Vacuum from Backscatter

Thank you all WetPixel folk!

I've been looking for a simple vacuum system for my NA90 housing - the non-electronic seem to be perfect and all I really need.

 

Can anyone comment on hand-pump vs electric/ battery pump?

I'm going to find out if this version can convert to the electronic version at a later time.

I'd love to have one for an upcoming trip!

It looks like this may be the upgrade from a D90....

 

However, I do not see an ability to manually raise/ lower the flash. Anyone else notice this? (Of course I realize all we have seen are previews of pre-release versions)


In Topic: YS-D1 or Inon 240?

Went to order the 4600K colour temp filters and Yuzo in Japan informed me that both the 4600K and 4900K are included with the strobes at no extra cost as part of an inon promotion.  Thanks Inon :-)

It sounds like that deal is only with purchase of new strobes - is Inon offering anything if you just want the filters for Inon strobes you already own?
