The problem I have with zooming in is that the picture gets blurry due to the movement that current usually causes (and my developing buoyancy control skills, of course). If I get too close to the target (less than 8-10 inches), the camera cannot focus. I hated the fact that I saw some beautiful nudis this trip and I could not get better shots. That pink leaf scorpion fish was beautiful, but there was quite a bit of current when I was trying to get the picture and I was trying to hover upside down (I think you can tell from the angle of the pic), so it came up quit blurry. It was so pretty that I still decided to include the pic. Thank you for the encouragement!!
Lol about the camera rig. I totally understand about using a small camera. I used to lug my DSLR and 2 strobes. If your still developing the buoyancy skills, just means you need to dive more! you haven good eye for the nudis. When I dove off of Ko Phi Phi Don and the Similan Islands, I never saw any nudis.

Pics please! Where are you staying! I had the best week of diving at Roatan. I stayed at CocoView Resort. 5-6 dives a day, can't be beat. Happy diving!
