Hello:
I justpurchased an IKElite housing for my Canon Rebel and the store that sold me stressed that the only lube I should use on the O rings is the IKELITE lube. I asked what is the difference between IKELITE o ring lube and anything else and he said since you never know what goes in that lube,it could eat away the seal.
Before having this camera housing I had a cheaper housing and vaseline did its job. If not vaseline than even spit did the job. Yo Ikelete owners, do you only buy Ikelite lube or any o ring lube would work?
Thanks -
