The k50 & k30 are "weather sealed". I'm guessing this isn't? Does anyone know for sure? Any 'o' rings where it attaches to the camera?

This goes inside the battery compartment. The compartment is sealed. This does not change the WR of the two cameras.

This goes inside the battery compartment, thus is sealed by the o-ring on the battery compartment door.

This replaces your rechargeable battery. I figure the cover on the camera that encloses this would be the waterproof part.

It goes completely inside the camera's battery chamber. The camera itself is weather-sealed, so there is no need for additional weather sealing on interior components.

The battery flap is weather sealed not the battery holder so it doesn't need to be this product works well on the k 50

Almost sure 99% it is like most Pentax K Mount DSLRs are WR weather resistance. Check out Ricoh Pentax website to be sure. Great Camera

It is weather proof. Which means rain/snow proof as well as against fine dust in a desert environment.Only and only cameras designed especially for underwater photography are water proof. K10D was never meant to be for underwater photography. Having said that with special underwater housing designed for K10D (WHICH COULD BE AS EXPENSIVE AS THE CAMERA ITSELF), it can be used for underwater photography as well.

Not officially. I would be careful with it in the weather. Overall I think its a great camera, I've been using one for 5 years (my review is somewhere on here) and continue to be very pleased with the results.

The camera itself is or appears to me to be fully waterproof in itself and then the case adds further protection but in any sort of heavy or wind driven rain the camera will get wet. That cannot be avoided but was anticipated in the camera design. The main purpose of the box is really to protect the camera from theft.

I haven't had anything like that happen to mine. I was just looking at the lens and honestly I can't see what might fall off in the way of a thin, plastic circle or ring. If the camera is still operating properly then I'd say keep taking pictures. With hope the now-missing circle/ring hasn't left an opening where dust and dirt can get into the lens or the camera itself. Keep us posted.

The camera is extremely well built and some of the RX10 covers on some of the ports will repel moisture but the lens itself because it is a zoom lens is susceptible to dust and moisture contamination. Rain, moisture and dust should be avoided if you wish to have a full functioning camera. Sony was using weather resistant as marketing hype to suggest better quality constructed camera which is true but it is definitely not weather proof in any way whatsoever.

No, the connector is not weather sealed. However, it is recessed within the housing itself so that it does get some shielding from weather. Don't expect to be able to hose the thing down with a pressure washer.By the way, I never got the Aircam to work. I don't remember the details now, but it basically boiled down to poorly designed and buggy software. I bought the unit to eval, and sorry, it just wasn't worth my time to chase it down further at the time. This is atypical of the Ubiquiti brand by the way. Maybe the re-branded some OEM product on this one.

It works perfectly with my Pentax K30, so it must also work with no problems with the K50 which is practically the same camera.

I know it will probably work with the K50 since it is the upgrade for my K30. I would suggest you Google pentax.com with this question. I have a feeling it probably will work but I don't want to lead you astray!

Works with my k-50 and my k-30 I do not know with the k-5. This might help you...http://youtu.be/YxIEUfsDW2A Looks like you need to buy this D-BG4 Grip for the camera.

It's got some kind of sticky stuff on the surface. You peal off the protective cover and attach to the camera. So far it is working just fine and is attached quite firmly.

Sorry, I can't answer that question because the camera that I purchased was installed in South Florida. I can tell you that there does not appear to be any sort of weatherproof housing so it's very susceptible to the elements... hot/cold/wet/dry. The unit that I purchased didn't last a month before failed. If it's indoors it might last a longer. Good luck

The label on my K-50 reads: "Assembled in Philippines" , which usually means the parts were made in Japan then shipped to the Philippines for assembly. I have found it to be a very ruggedly constructed camera. Mine, with a Pentax 18-250mm attached, took a fall of about 3to 3 1/2 feet onto a concrete floor. The only damage was sustained by the protective filter.

The 18-55 kit lens is NOT weather sealed. Weather sealed lenses have the "WR" designation.
