TG5 in PT056 Housing?

[reefrat]

Has anyone tried to fit a TG5 in their TG4 housing?
The cameras look physically very similar in pictures and I have a couple of PT056 housings that I would not replace if I don’t have to!

The TG-5 is thicker than the TG-4 and the controls are in slightly different places.

Thanks Andy. I suspected as much and hope that the differences aren’t simply the type of deliberate redundancy inducing alterations typical of that largest cellphone company that we all know! In the past Olympus has been better than that!

On a positive note, there are a lot of people who would love to buy your housings for the TG-4 if they’re in good condition.

If you have the Olympus housing for the TG-4 I would be interested in buying it.
