Had a German diving buddy in Cuba recently who had an adapter that
joined two yoke first stages. He had his primary second stage on one,

In Albany, New York we seem to be loosing Scubapro dealers left and right.

I would like a camera for day to day point and shoot use and an underwater
housing for photos when snorkelling (and the occasional dive). I
