Sealife Photo Shoot and Oceanic’s “DataMask” at Nature Island Dive - Monday, July 9th, 2007
After debuting its underwater cameras at the Underwater Treasure Hunt on Sunday, Sealife is taking them on tour around Dominica to give everyone a chance to use them. Sealife Representative Mr. Joe Iffie was at Nature Island Dive in Soufriere today.
Divers took the plunge with two different camera models. Notice the cooperation of the octopus modelling for the photographers!
Divers also had the opportunity to use Oceanic’s new state-of-the-art mask called the DataMask. 
Mr. Dan Emke from Oceanic was on hand to allow divers to demo with this fantastic new piece of equipment.
This mask uses brand new technology to provide a “Heads-Up Display” (HUD) of important diving information: Air Time, Depth, Time Remaining, etc — all in the corner of the mask! This takes the place of the gauge traditionally attached to the regulator, eliminating one more piece of dangling equipment.

Dylan and I (in picture at the top) really enjoyed using the Sealife cameras. We got a ton of shots of this octopus. Dylan took over 100 shots on each dive. They were really easy to use and the results were quite impressive for novice underwater photographers. I also tried the HUD mask, which was an ideal computer for a diver armed with a camera, as there was no need, to stop and check your gauge, the info was right there with just a downward glance at the corner of your mask. Thanks so much to Joe and Dan for making these products available.
