Wow, cool vid Riff,

I was wondering why you needed a base piece? couldn’t you just use a PVC tube instead of that ‘t’ piece?

Rio

Yeah Im not 100% sure on that either but I had a couple of thoughts…

it looks like he seals the bottom section with an internal cup thus creating a chamber that could be used for

  • adding ballast

  • attaching handles without compromising the camera chamber

  • car keys?

not quite sure… if ballast was used then the camera would be self righting which would be kinda cool when diving… it might also stabalise the picture somewhat…

ok… now Im just thinking out loud on sways…
