Have narrowed our next trip down to Thailand or Malaysia.
Have been recommended to go to Khao Lak in Thailand and to stay at the Le

I understand the diving is supposed to be world class here at the Similan

I'll see you in 3 weeks+.
I might even have some dive stories.  I'll be meeting two rec.scubans, a

I didn't get much success with my post in rec.scuba.equipment and
uk.rec.scuba (thanks Matthias for your reply). So I take the liberty to

I'm looking at the canon Digital Rebel and the Nikon D70. I flooded my housing
so I am looking to upgrade to a new camera and a new housing. I have a sea &
Sea YS-90 strobe. Which of these cameras would be my best choice? Will both be
able to use my strobe?
