Scuba Gear Reviews by Ronald Agee

Oceanic Ion 3X Scuba Dive Mask
Rating: Worked great but no room for snorkel 7/30/2010

The other reviews about size confused me. The mask for medium to large faces is an average size mask. This mask worked great on my trip to Grand Cayman. Had to tighten to get the seal and it was NOT unconfortable. There was no room for a snorkel. I dove without one. As usual, the Oceanic Gear worked as expected. I tried to get the CLEAR but got a phone call at work from Scuba.com stating it wasnt available. They told me what they had and I chose blue. Glad they called instead of deciding on their own. Thank Scuba.com!!!

Scubamax Titanium BC Dive Knife
Rating: Small knife for BCD 7/18/2010

I carry one knife in my bcd pocket. This one fit perfect in my low profile Oceanic Islander pocket.

Delkin Secure Digital (SD) Memory Card
Rating: Purchase for the DC1200 Sealife 7/18/2010

I bought this because it was recommended. It worked well. I also used a Class 4 (8gb) card with the camera. I could not tell the difference.

Sealife DC1200 12.0 Megapixel Underwater Camera and Housing
Rating: Best for me 7/18/2010

Camera was the best buy for my Grand Cayman Trip. My pictures were better than any 35mm from the past. The option to create videos with just one button was priceless. Bought two batteries and this ended up being a good decision. One battery did not last three dives. Also bought a class 6 (8gb) flash card and also purchased (locally) a class 4 (8gb) card. I used both but could not tell the difference. Piano keys are preferred for me but I have never used a camera with 20 buttons. Micro pictures were great although the best pictures were from 6 to 10 inches. NOTE: when using the AUTO focus, remember to press halfway so the camera can focus, then finish pressing the key. IF you dont do this, you will get the standard blue picture.

PADI Enriched Air Diver Crew Pack - DVD
Rating: Good for Intro 7/11/2008

DVD is good. I wanted additional information concerning nitrox before going on the dive trip to Bonaire. First certification was with PADI, 1991. Nitrox certification was with SSI. I wanted both views. SSI dive tables were better. Product was still a good buy.
