5.0 out of 5 stars Indonesia Photo Safari using Step Zero as my Guide, June 29, 2008

I am a budding SCUBA Photographer and decided to use the new Step Zero: Getting Started a SCUBA Photo Trip book as a guide for my preparations on my dive vacation to Indonesia. I invested many thousands of dollars in SCUBA equipment and underwater camera gear and the trip to Sulawesi itself and wanted not to be kicking myself for a simple error that could ruin my enjoyment. Well, the trip was fantastic. We spent 5 days at a dive resort and then 10 days on a live-aboard dive ship....SCUBA diving and shooting. I have thousands of photos both above and below water... and video as well. Given that this was such a major endeavor to cart all my gear half-way around the world, I am thrilled to say this book saved my vacation. I followed the simple but non-obvious rules and guidelines the book presented and found myself prepared and enjoying my vacation. If you are an experienced world traveller, this book can at least present reminders and lists to follow. But, if you are a moderate world traveller like me, or a novice and want to be sure that your SCUBA photo vacation is 100% relaxing and fun, then I highly recommend this book to you.
