MikeVeitch 0 Posted August 1, 2009 No, not a new girlfriend! I have FINALLY updated my camera system, yes yes I know, everyone is shocked and disappointed in me... But I finally cleared enough room on my credit cards to build them back up again! Its a Nikon D90 and Aquatica Housing. Very impressed with the housing so far, have only pulled it out of the box just now, great shipping and service from Blake, Jean and the team from Aquatica as always. Really liking the new finishing and paint of the new design of housing. Also, the quick release shoe for the camera looks great. Once I get back to Lembeh I can put it in the water and actually take some photos! Seeing as I have been there for a year.. its about time I did! More soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealDrew 0 Posted August 1, 2009 No, not a new girlfriend! I have FINALLY updated my camera system, yes yes I know, everyone is shocked and disappointed in me... Hey this is better than a new girlfriend Of course I am a bit concerned that this could be a sign of the end of the world. Enjoy it and looking forward to seeing the photos, congrats on it all and enjoy.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divegypsy 20 Posted August 4, 2009 Mike, You don't have to post new shots of the GF, we've all seen plenty of Simon before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheRealDrew 0 Posted August 4, 2009 I posted a photo of the camera and housing, Do I have to post photos of the gf too? Tough crowd! You forgot to fully erase the Aquatica Digital Logo on the upper left and the AD90 logo from the upper right in the photo of "your housing". Looks pretty much like a straight lift from Aquatica's site to me.. You don't have to post new shots of the GF, we've all seen plenty of Simon before. Mike's right, it is a tough crowd.
