I really would like to replace all of the button, zoom, playback o-rings in my Canon housing but no one seems to either be able to supply them or even know what size they are.
My housing is the WP-DC900 for the Powershot A80.
I have a new main o-ring which I got from Canon Australia, but they claim they have no idea about the button o-rings. I asked what they did then when they "service" the housings and they couldn't answer that, so basically they just clean and lube the o-rings which anyone can do.
They did say that to replace those o-rings I'd need to buy a new part, so a whole new door as an assembly and since I want to replace all of them, it would mean a complete new housing!!
Seems extraordinary just to replace about $2 worth of o-rings!!!
I have tried measuring and matching them at an o-ring supplier but they couldn't do it accurately enough to inspire any confidence, I really need to know what the sizes are.
Someone somewhere must know this info. Can anyone help??
Thanks in advance.
