Flooded my XTI housing last weekend, my bad as it was the first time down to 90ft and should have taken the housing down to check without the camera first. I sat on the deco bar at 20ft for a few minutes with no issue and when I got to the bottom literally saw the housing filling up. Couldn't determine where the leak was coming from during the flood (horrifed at that point ) or after the dive. Everything appeared sealed correctly and inspection of the O-Rings didn't reveal anything. Put it back together and stuck it in a tub overnight with no leak. Obviously I need to send it for service repair but wanted to ensure you have a way to check at depth. If not, was thinking of taking it back down on a dive to 'test'. I'm sure it was something I overlooked but given the circumstances, thought I would ask. Thanks.
