I've been shooting underwater with ease for almost 10 years, so I know the precautions to take when using marine backpacks. Water got into the housing the second time it was used and the camera was damaged. I complained to Sony about this and all I got was a cold reception and a lame explanation that the shipping instructions said that in the unlikely event of a malfunction, Sony is not responsible for the camera, battery etc. Of course it was in the manual, so there was no recourse on my part. However, you should read the owner's manual to learn that the ship's packaging is no guarantee that the interior will remain dry. I follow the instructions in the manual which says that after cleaning and oiling the seal you should hold the sea pack under water without a hose to see if there are any bubbles which I did and it was fine. Deciding that was all I had to do, I parked the car and walked to the boat. However, elsewhere in the manual it says to dive 3-4 feet deep with the camera and see if there is a leak, then bailing out immediately if there is. If you've dived then you know it's not that easy, especially on a drift dive like it was in my case. Sony seems to have filled the user manual with all sorts of disclaimers which lead me to believe they know the product is faulty and have gone to great lengths to avoid liability. Although most of my electronic products are Sony, I will not buy any other Sony products.
