Right. There should be a color named "envy green" :)

Legal lingo has been invented for one sole purpose, and that is to shift money. In other words, the logic of big fish eating small fish surpasses all other logic.
So copyright-mark your work and...

I have never had an underwater watchpiece which leaked, and some of those had shaft operated internal divetime rings. So, static vs. dynamic pressures have nothing to do with sealing abilities at...

In Nikonos times it was customary to build and test the UW devices of all sorts to at least 150% of the rated pressure. I have taken Nikonos models III and V below 80 meters (9Atm, or 200%) with no...

Ages ago, the only viewfinders were made from bent wire, in the form of two rectangles you looked through. The rectangles were mounted one behind the other in the line of sight, and their sizes...

That's one more reason for manufacturers to finally see the light and stop producing those funny excused for sealing. It's one thing how it looks in the designing program or on the drawing board,...

All filters will be "waterproof" if you take care to mount and also remove them in water, taking care not to leave any air bubbles between the lens and filter. Do not apply force when screwing the...

HowAboutRAW... I have used all Nikonos models with all the lenses they produced, also with their accessories and those of other manufacturers. True, that was the most serious line of amphibious...

People used flash sync speed like that for ages, with no complaints...

Once upon a time all underwater equipment was tested to at least 150% rated pressure, and often worked well at over 200%. Such devices (breathing regs, cameras, diving instruments etc.) could...

Well, until Nikon came up with AF lenses, I'd be perfectly willing to use manual settings. The data on the monitor would suffice, and the whole would still be easier to use than the film version.
I...

Water-freezing temp is not the reference point ih F?
My error, then.
However, water-freezing point is important when speaking about mechanical and optical problems it causes, not to mention the...

I somehow think the real reason is like always: trying to sell out all the technology already produced before coming up with some "revolutionary" new system.
Considering what's already available,...

The "color correction" is just some added reds, which can be had in "underwater modes". There is no practical use for it.
Human eye depends upon the sunllight, and it filters through the water...

@HowAboutRaw... Don't forget that Nikon botched the two models thoroughly: IVa and RS. The former had an unthought-through seal which they quickly exchanged for proper o-ring in mod. V. The RS was...
