Housings with no viewfinder, monitor only, opinions ?
darrylsc replied to ronrosa's topic in Video Gear and Technique
We had plenty of tools on the Fiji Aggressor II -- nothing we tried worked...either the LCD or the board is fried...there was signal coming through the AV out onto the board, and there was power on the board... I didn't think of removing the board/LCD but don't think it would have made much difference...there's a good amount of space between the back of the HC7 and the back of the housing -- I believe it would have been impossible to see anything. As for Internet connectivity...connectivity options were gone, meaning we were too far North East of Suva, by the time I noticed this unfortunate situation...and trust me we tried many times...talk about frustrating! -

I just took my brand new Amphibico Housing for my HC7 to Fiji. I tested it before I left and the monitor worked, but it didn't when I arrived...it sucked doing 22 dives with it and guessing the angle the whole time and not being able to do anything by wide. -

First UW shots with 20D and 10-22mm lens
darrylsc replied to Darek Sepiolo's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
I'm curious how you configured the #5509.28 special zoom and clamp set with the 10-22mm...I just took mine for it's first swim and struggled to get it set to that it was in a stable position and moving freely (I didn't use any of the foam...it made it worse when I tried to use it), and not moving so that the teeth weren't engaged...could just be me so I'm interested how you got yours to work reliably. Thanks! --Darryl -
Excellent report and awesome pics...thanks for taking the time to write it up and for posting the pics Matt...those learnings will come in handy when I take my similar setup on it's maiden voyage (to Palau) in 2 weeks --Darryl _______________________ Canon EOS 20D, Canon 17-85mm, Canon 10-22mm, Canon 100mm w/ Ikelite Housing, Ikelite DS-125, Ikelite Ports 5503.50 & 5505.45
