The the huge amount of useful information people have shared on this forum finally urged me to purchase the FIX G11 housing form my Canon G11 camera last Xmas. However, I have noticed that water enters underneath the flash bracket/plate on the housing. It usually only does this at depth (say 20 metres). There is also an O-ring there. However, there are now salt deposits on the o-ring. Having owned an underwater camera of some sorts for 10 years, I fully appreciate the importance of rinsing and soaking the camera after use. However, I cannot flush out the salt crystals as water only enters this part of the camera under depth.
Apologies if this makes little sense - I have attached a picture to try and clarify the garbled nonsense I have written above. Is this a fault of the camera or is it normal? Do I need t get it serviced and if so does anyone know anywhere in the UK that could do this? Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
