JMR ... I had my K20d in the trunk of my car, but didn't think of taking it when the captain told me we were going to practice ice rescue. Once there I just dug out my W60 which I keep in my bunker pockets, problem is getting a decent exposure and white balance with all that ice and a gray sky!
Heli ... It is indeed the Optio W60 waterproof camera... as I mentionned up there it's always in my bunker pocket, except that normaly I never find the time to pull it out and take pics in fires
Montreal being an island with waterways that freeze in winter, we sort of need a decent ice rescue setup
The problem with the dry suits is that the guys get soaked in sweat fairly quickly as pushing the UMA around on the ice is a heck of a workout!
