    @DavidCatersSo, it seems that Caters are still doing this. I have had content on Caters for months, its been sold multiple times and they have made money from my content.

    To cut a really long story short and a multitude of emails to caters requesting payment for my royalties, they are still not paying. Despite being constantly reassured payment will be made. Even, had one person tell me it would be made by 3pm UK time the following day. This never happened.

    When i mentioned this thread on Wetpixel to the Accounts Assistant this was the answer:

    "I can assure you those reviews are quite old and we’ve completely revamped the payment system since then.

     

     

    This is a one time issue that we haven’t had before and is certainly the first issue we’ve had with the payment system since those reviews.

     

     

    We have the payment run with your payment scheduled to go out tomorrow and that will be for the balance on your account. Please let me know if you haven’t received that by 3pm UK time and I will chase it for you. "

     

     

    I still haven't been paid.  How hard is it to look after a contributor by making an immediate payment for royalties that have not been paid out for months!

    Their last excuse was this

    "Apologies for the delay in getting back to you, I was awaiting responses from the payments team.

     

    Your payment was on the payment run we sent out last month, it seems however that the system encountered a problem while uploading and a number of payments were unfortunately missed but marked as paid.

     

    Please accept our apologies for this, I will get the team to add you to the next payment run we send out as a matter of priority."

     

    Again this never happened. How can you miss a multitude of payments and not notice it?

    I am really dissapointed it ended up at this. But I want to warn other people considering using caters as an agency, it seems you will NOT get paid, try Shutterstock, Adobe stock or any other microstock agency, they pay on time, every time! 

    I am closing my account with them and removing my files.

    The RX-100-D-RO Buddy Phone® Receive Only unit is designed to plug into a Female E/O connector on your camera housing and feed live audio into the microphone input on your camera. The RX-100-D-RO is an excellent choice if you are seeking the least expensive way to feed live audio directly into your camera input.

    How it works.. The RX-100-D-RO is a modified RX-100 unit. The standard RX-100 unit sits on the side of your standard scuba face mask (over the side of your ear) and all it does is receive audio coming from another Buddy Phone, SSB-2010, or any through water communications unit that operates on Channel 1 (32.768 Khz Upper Sideband). This audio is then played through the speaker and you hear it real time. This works great for a recreational scuba diver or a scuba instructor wanting to give instruction - but we wanted to modify the RX-100 so that instead of playing the audio through the speaker it would instead route the audio out through the cable and directly into your u/w camera housing.

    Bring your underwater films out of the 'silent' era with this easy to use Receive Only unit. Contact your OTS Representative for more information.

    (The RX-100 is compatible with all OTS through water communications systems (surface and diver) and receives on Channel 1.)

     

    $300 USD (rrp$499)

     

    Shipping from Australia - Buyer pays shipping.

    For sale. My Nauticam GH4 housing. Excellent condition. Very few minor scratches. Dome is in great condition. Macro port has only been used once. With leak detector and vacuum port.

    No vacuum pump with it, unless I find it before the sale. I haven't used the vacuum pump itself for a long time, I simply suck the air out before a dive.

    I can teach the buyer how to do this. It's much more convenient than carrying a pump with you.
