He moved to Eilat, the south popint of israel to the red sea in 1996 to make his dream come true - becoming a diving instructor.How ever the only job he could find was taking photos underwater of student divers. with no knowledge what so ever in photography noam started to "play" with the camera when ever he could. one year later Noam started to work as an instructor and put the camera down.

What I look for in a Dive Operator:
"Fun and safety" to start with.
It is highly important that the dive guides will have respect and understanding for the underwater inhabitant.

it is simply a masterpiece (all seacam models).
extremely well designed quick access to all the buttons and very friendly for the user.
The interior of the housing will absorb drops of water in case of licking

heavy, unreliable - I had a lot of repining problem with the power know - it didn't mater on what power setting it was on and it keep shooting on full - it kept going back to Ikelite to fixed until I had enough and asked them to be replaced to DS125

I used to shout with the 10.5 nikon but something was missing - now I am not limited just to fish eye lens during the dive.
it has sometimes difficulties to focus.

Wonderful camera.
Only problem is the noise in high iso.
I specially the high speed crop feature that can give a very good super macro on top of the wet diopter and teleconveres. As well it has a very fast focus response.
5 stars.
