Hi Alan  At one point I had looked at a controlled spot light for a car or boat that mounted with a suction cup and ran off of 12 volt car plug. It rotated 360 and had a 90 up down pan. I thought I could mount that whole deal at the head of a mast and mount a camera where the light goes. Just a thought. Best regards Greg PS. Family is visiting Hawaii. Lucky us. We are scheduled to ride on the Atlantis 48 person sub in 2 days. A little big to be a psub but does anyone have any questions they'd like me to ask? G Gregory B.

with the thought of 
canabilizing it for a periscope. 
The idea being to pressure proof & mount the 
lense & possibly the focus drive mechanism 
on a retractable pole, stick the body of the camera 
in the hull somewhere & the LCD screen 
in front of me. & Hugh thinks he's thrifty. ( 
the Comsub 600 he bought last year must have been a bargain) 
I'm hoping this will be easy.
