Sea Life DC500

I bought one a couple of months ago. The only issue I had was the ext strobe feature would not always fire so I went to the Sealife web site and downloaded their updated firmware. Stored the file on the memory card and following the simple instructions installed it on my camera. No problems now.

I was told by some ppl that no matter what camera you get for diving, to take it down w/ you at least 1-2 times w/o the inner camera in it.....Some of them even tell you to service the O-ring prior to diving the housing......I hadnt thought about it leaking the 1st dive but thats a really good rule to live by......

Two points to think about on this one. First remember that if you dive with an empty housing it will be very positive. Take that into consideration when you put your weights on. Secondly, I know that with my luck if I dove with an empty housing that it there would be a 'once in a lifetime' photo op that I would miss!!!
