I have been diving a few years and really am considering a rebreather. My motivation for this is to help with photography. I have a few questions because I have very little knowledge about rebreathers

where do you get training?
how much does a full closed system cost?
can you rent them? Is this advisable?
do most dive boats allow you to dive with a rebreather or do you have to go to special operations?
is this a really technical system to learn?
is it heavy?
etc.

any other advice for someone considering a rebreather would be gratly appreciated. thanks.
Hey Matt,
I hate to be the one to do this but I suggest you do some seaching and lurking on this board and you will find all the answers to these questions.
Welcome to RBW and I am sure you will find hours of interesting reading.
