How do the lens seals stand up to water? Some off-site reviews have suggested this housing leaks.

I had these installed for about a year, before I sold the car. Never had one problem, absolutely meets or exceeds OEM standards.

I had to send the camera back; because, the camera got moisture inside and stopped working. The lens also had issues fogging up in humid conditions. My camera never went below a few feet. So I do not know if this is a build quality issue or a design problem with the camera. When working it took great pictures and we had fun using the camera for some surfing photos. The video record feature is also very nice and easy to use. It is a good action camera that can get wet. As to waterproof, I am not so sure. Hope this helps, Phil

Yeah. They come off. The lens was spotless. It holds up to 450 fps at 20 ft

I have an 800 and a 500. I have had the 800 for 4 years and the 500 for 2 years. I have never had a leak nor a problem with either. I also have 2 high end Bushnell cameras I am in my second year with. I have already had to send one of them back for repair.

0votes No problem! However, I have lost 2 adapters already. They easily come off when you're not paying attention. I also change lenses underwater with no problems at all. 0votes I shoot with the adapter on underwater all the time. You can use it in and out of the water without harm. Make sure to rinse the camera off with the adapter off in fresh water after use in slat water so the screws can get fresh water on them. You'll see a white powdery coating on the screw heads if you don't rinse well enough.

Hi Paula, My name is Lonnie. I also bought the camera and waterproof housing. Mine is still good. Try here for a case. http://www.intova.net/ . If you can't find the case contact customer support and I'm sure they can help....

While I have not had any leaks, there are no seals. Shed relies totally on overlapping surfaces. I would NOT rely on this shed for any water sensitive or other such valuables.

Before I mounted mine I sealed what little might have water or condensation come through with all weather. Silicone caulk and electrical tape. I have mine mounted to the side of my house about five feet from my camera, Ivehad mine a for a few months and looks like its holding up pretty well with no problems. The cord it comes with is pretty short so you might have to install a new outlet near the mounting point or run an extension cord.

My lens rattles a little, so I assume these are not at all waterproof. If you run a bead of silicone around the lens it should make it a lot better.

They are not waterproof per se, but my camera and lenses were snug in my Lowepro bag when they rolled off a 10 foot high rock and landed in a 2in deep puddle, zipper down. Horrified, I scrambled off the rock and yanked my bag out of the puddle, and was amazed that not a drop of water got in my bag, and my dSLR and lenses were all unharmed. I will never own any bag except a Lowepro!!! Also, I have been caught in sudden rainstorms and have never had water get in my bag. Common sense should prevail though, and I wouldn't stay out in rain any longer than neccessary to get myself and the camera out of the weather.

I would say they are water resistant. They do have a rubbber gasket behind the lense but fully submerged for any lenght of time they might get water in the shell.

We have not had any problems so far. Went scuba diving in Fiji for a month and pictures came out great. This is a nice case that delivers well and has not been challenging to maintain or use. We never missed a shot we wanted to get.

I've had NO problem with leakage. I've vinegar & alcohol in them that I clean eyeglasses with,also water for watercolor paintings.

It is not the lens covers rattling, it is the optical element unit inside, could be because of the image stabilization mechanism as Vincent stated, but whatever the part is, I find it impossible to believe that this the way a major manufacturer like Canon designed it. Probably the latch designed to hold it when powered off is broken and not grabbing it. That said I don

I'm not sure of what your question is about ,the housing is weather proof rain drops could spot the outside of the plastic lens. May have a problem if you live where the temps get very cold with pan and focus.

My problem with these goggles is the leaking. Your issue can probably be corrected by rinsing the lenses with soap and warm water. Good luck!
