Very cool! I just watched your interview with Dive Talk and couldn’t even finish the video before looking up your channel. I look forward to watching and learning more from your videos! Thank you 😊

Jill, another great video. I saw you did a similar article in a popular dive magazine recently. The bright red cover on your iPhone 14 Pro caught my attention. However, for the wrong reason. I have the new Kraken version 2 and an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Recently, I was diving in Curaçao and in a rush to get setup. I forgot to take the same style protection off the phone even though I knew better. During the dive the indicator light turned from green to red. Yes, I had a leak. Fortunately, it was small, and phone and Kraken survived just fine. For all, make sure there is no pressure on the case door when closing (that should have been a clue for me). I was able to create a vacuum in the case, but it didn’t last the dive. I know have a pre-dive checklist on the phone in a notes app: Protective Case OFF Autolock OFF Airplane Mode ON Blutooth ON Auto brightness OFF Brightness HIGH A smart phone housing is great way to get into underwater photography/video on a "budget" with epic results. Especially with ProRes/RAW formats and 48+Meg resolution in high end phones. I now have a couple of “wet lenses” with the Kraken adapter. (Maybe a subject for a follow up segment) Lights are next. Appreciated the content on trim JUST MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE (or check) THE PHONE FROM (with) ANY PROTECTIVE CASE BEFORE USING WITH A HOUSING !

I just purchased a Sealife Dive Sport smartphone UW housing. I used it this past weekend at the Blue Hole in Santa Rosa, NM. It was fantastic!
