Bought housing and camera from Ikelite. Camera didn't work - would not focus, jumpy video, white-balance all messed up. Housing buttons were misaligned with camera buttons so that three buttons touched the camera body instead of the camera controls!
Sent it back and it came back as a "reconditioned" camera (Nikkon L28), and someone did a totally funky job of jury-rigging the rubber tips on the housing buttons to make them reach sideways (so they'd reach the camera controls). Used rubber button tips from other housings apparently and trimmed them with a razor blade.
I called Ikelite and told them what a crappy job they did and that I wanted to return it and get a full refund. They said they don't do refunds. So I paid $400.00 for a reconditioned camera with a housing in which the control buttons are after-thoughts (and they are so ill-fitting they fall off when you open the housing).
If you think Ikelite will back up what they sell, think again. Once you buy from Ikelite, it's yours whether or not it works.
