Has any one experienced an "unexplained" leak on ascent with this set up ?
After a 40 minute dive. max depth about 23 metres, I took a few photos - mixture of macro and mantas - then tucked the camera away for the ascent and noticed that the leak detector I'd installed was flashing nicely red when I was on the safety stop and there was a little puddle of water inside.
Rinsed and dried out the housing, checked the o-ring etc. Put the empty housing in a bucket of water after a couple of days (camera is now an expensive paperweight), pressed all the buttons and it remained as dry as a bone inside.
Would I be better off getting an Ikelite housing if (when) I replace the camera or should I just put it down to bad luck ?
