My rig:
C5050-Zoom
Ikelite case
DS-125 strobe with TTL .... yadda yadda yadda
Principal suspects here being either the camera or the case.
If I make a deep dive to below 70 ft
the C5050 powers itself off.
The power switch may be on, but the camera goes dead.
If I power it on while below 70, it comes on for a few seconds, then goes dead.
If I power it on above 70 ft, then go below 70 ft, .... goes dead.
We suspect some getting squeezed at depth,
maybe a dial getting pushed in?
Anyone have a similar experience ?
Case goes back into Ikelite for annual service next month.
I wrote Ike about it and that was their only suggestion ... servicing.
