Changing of the Guard

[Gudge]

We got out for one dive last Saturday and it turned out to be my last dive with the 50D/Subal rig as when we got home from the dive there was the loan Aquatica 7D and accessories sitting in a Pelican case on our front doorstep (good thing Exmouth has a very low crime rate ). Conditions were pretty terrible and once again we were limited to Bundegi Reef. I was shooting the 10-17 behind the 4" Zen dome again. Didn't get anything I was terribly proud of but here are two of my best:





For Sunday's dive I decided to keep it simple (new camera & new housing) so I just put my 60 macro on the 7D and concentrated on fish shots while I got used to the new rig. We managed to get our first dive in on Blizzard Ridge in Lighthouse Bay ( the first non-Bundegi dive in 7 dives) but the wind blew up from the SW during the surface interval so it was back to Bundegi again for the second dive. Here's a few of my first attempts with the new rig:

Nice work Gudge. You'd best change your WAD signature and hand that subal deal over to the missus officially.

As usual Gudge, great pics. I like the blenny poking his head out the hole.

So how does the Aquatica housing perform?

It's a very nice housing. Once I get my Nauticam housing and have had few dives with it too I'll be doing a report comparing the two.
