My camera needs were very minimal, as I shoot with a Canon A20 digital
without an external flash. I was the only photographer at the resort for
the week, really there were only 4 of us, so I did not get a sense of
thier camera set up.

Wonderful, small, intimate resort on the beach. Your meals are taken with
the owners & staff, so you get to know everyone very quickly. The
staff responded quickly to issues, were attentive when you needed them
& gave you lost of room to explore as you wished to. The dive sites
were 10-15 minutes boat ride for the most part. Surface intervals were on
wonderful white sand beaches with shells galore. 
They dive when you want to dive, so the guests set the tone for schedule.
The high point of the day was the late afternoon gathering at the beach
bar to visit & watch the sun go down before dinner. 
The only down side, if you can call it one, is that there really is no
shore diving. The area is wonderful for snorkeling, but not anywhere deep
enough for diving.
