Wetpixel Live: Vacuum Housing Systems
eyu replied to adamhanlon's topic in Photography Gear and Technique
Is there any advantage or disadvantage to applying more vacuum after your indictor light shows you have negative pressure in your housing? Elmer -
I have had 4 custom wetsuits made by https://wetwear.com over the last 16 years. Had over 800 dives on my original 3 mm before deciding to get a new one made. I like their ez on feature with zippers on arms, legs and that they use very warm nitrogen cell neoprene. Being custom, I have had a relief zipper added to allow me to pee without partially taking the suit off. I also have a 5 mm and 2 mm, the 3 mm is to warm for 80+degree water. Wet Wear has a booth at the Beneath the Sea Dive Show in March and I believe they are at other shows too. Elmer

Pavel, Thank you for the info. Elmer -
Hi Pavel,
Do you know of a TTL setup that will work with a Nexus housing for a D850?
Thanks, Elmer

I have been happy with Parallels using Windows 7 and SmartTrak. But Parallels has gone to a yearly fee for an updated version if I upgrade to macOS Catalina. I will look into DiveLog Elmer -
I have had multiple masks with reading lens placed in the lower third by: https://prescriptiondivemasks.com They do an excellent job Elmer

$35 is pricey for a lanyard, but considering the thousands of $$ my rig cost, I consider it a bargain to know it will say attached to me.

This is the lanyard I use: https://www.cetaceacorp.com/crl3hd.html It is strong
-
The problem with this flexible plastic lanyard is that it is not that strong, had one get caught as I passed my rig to the boatman and it snapped in two. I've gone to a woven nylon lanyard that phxazcraig uses.

Transiting through US - camera gear in carry on - any issues?
eyu replied to tomstgeorge's topic in Trip Reports and Travel
Just do not pack your tools in your carry on. TSA will confiscate your allen wrenches and your screw drivers. Housing, strobes, battery charges and arms are not an issue as a carry on -
Thanks for sharing your dive trip report and pics. I enjoyed them. I have been to Lembeh and Anilao and love the muck Elmer

To me the most important features about a housing are its ergonomics, how it feels in my hands and how the shutter actuation works. i want to feel the half shutter through the actuation lever, have access to f stop, aperture controls and function buttons without taking my eye off of the viewfinder. I have used Aquatica, Sea & Sea, Nauticam and Subal housings. i like Tim am quite pleased with my Subal housings. Beside the ergonomics of its fit in my hands i particularly like ( and require ) the half shutter feel through the shutter lever. I prefer driving a BMW M4. Elmer
