I have an old video housing that I bought off ebay that is made for the older Sony HI-8mm cameras. Unfortunately, my son broke the camera so I picked up another cheap one off ebay but its a newer improved model. Unfortunately the start/stop button doesn't line up with the controls, the button is about 2" further back towards the viewfinder. I don't really want to redrill a hole to move the control and was thinking about trying to build a housing for a LANC controller instead. I've seen a bunch of these on ebay:

I could build a watertight box, but one problem I can see is that they are push buttons. Anyone have a pushbotton control out there that won't "push" when at depth?
If I can't get this to work, I'm thinking of just plugging the control hole in my housing and just starting the camera recording just before the dive.
Thanks,
Tony
