I like it!! It does great for very close up shots, but I like my film camera too...still!

They each have their own things they excel at.

Hi guys! Just got back from Monterey Bay where I participated in a survey of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary with REEF. We just launched their brand new invertebrate monitoring program and it was VERY cool seeing a lot of the same inverts that we have, but also different ones! I'm getting...

Hi all!! I'm down in Monterey right now, doing a Field survey trip with REEF in the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary. Very cool, and really awesome diving. Getting some great pics!

Price is normally $125 but Brian has graciously offered his classroom for use, so the price will drop to $100. Might be fun to have a BBQ or something...

That usually takes an additional half hour. So, it works best if everyone either does it as a specialty, or doesn't. I've taught at many dive s...

Hi guys! I never knew this place existed! Anyway, is it Fish ID you're wanting? Or Invertebrate ID? PADI specialty or not? Associated dives or just classroom?
