Thought of that. I could probably swing a GBR trip -- if I really try.
Getting over your way will be harder.
Our school sent a group of high school divers to Central America this past
summer and the kids spent very close to what I could do on a Queensland
trip.

I've been thingking of the utility digi gear to someone like you - serious
into slides. I think you could carry both pretty easily. You could pre-set,
or test, your shots on the digital, then take a slide. When you are out of
slides, you still won't miss a shot. If you could use the same strobes,
you's be in heaven. (I think I'd better find the UW photo list.)

Yes! I plan on going to the toy store and getting jellyfish and weedy sea
dragons to tie to my rig. Maybe they'll all foat it.
