I am using a JVC MG-730 digital camcorder (SD, not HD) in a Ikelite housing, along with a 100 watt Ikelite Pro Video-Lite 3 lighting system. I do my best to keep the camera steady, but I have to admit to a little help in the editing process as well.

As to wanting to see more, you'll have to wait till I finish the editing, then purchase the video. It will be available soon for around $15.00 - $20.00.

My friend, we MUST get you to blue water! I am off to the Texas Flower Gardens in about 2 weeks, aboard the MV Fling. I believe there is still a seat or two open on that trip. Or if not then, we also have a FG trip going out in late October. The cost isn't all that high.... around $500.00 or so.

Well I would love to go and I have researched the flower gardens before. The problem is I would have to pay for 2 as my wife also dives and I think she would kill me if I didn't take her. I think that would be grounds for divorce in her book! We just don't have the money right now for such a trip. We spent our savings that we were planning on using for a dive trip on a boat, so we are having to start over on our trip fund savings. Hopefully next spring we will be able to go somewhere.

One of the nice things about working for a dive shop (PT as an instructor) is that I hear about the trips early, reserve my spot, and get to pay for the trip over the course of a few months. I understand how it is with finances these days. I tend to save a bit all year for my annual Cozumel trips.
