Hi!
I just upgraded to a Sony full frame mirrorless from a Sony compact. Both cameras have been paired with a Nauticam housing and have the vacuum valve. I've thoroughly mastered the o-ring care on my compact after doing hundreds of dives on it but I'm feeling a bit more intimidated by the new mirrorless housing by having 3 o-rings to maintain (main entry into housing, port, and viewfinder when I add/remove it) vs the 1 I had on my compact.
I found this from Nauticam but I was also hoping someone could provide their own anecdotes on their routine care of o-rings, especially for weeks of repetitive diving doing 4 dives a day consistently. How often are you pulling it out, checking it, and/or greasing them? Is there anything that you do or don't do that differs from that document? If you have any tips/suggestions, all would be welcome. It's a new routine that I need to get used to and I'm hoping the experience and wisdom of the group will put me at ease.
Thanks so much!
