I just bought an Ikelight housing for my Olympus 5060 camera. If you are looking at the back of the housing like you were taking a picture there are 2 dials on the left. In the manual they label them as "Exposure Comp" and "Flash".... When I close the housing, the little levers on those dials are constantly pressing the buttons down. I can turn the dial so it doesnt press down anymore, but the spring action puts it right back down again. Is this normal?? Thanks in advance for any tips.

Could this be because of the 'stay depressed when desired' functionality that Ikelite housings have for the C5050/5060? This is provided so you don't have to keep the button pressed while turning the jog dial. You will need to manually release it so it is no longer pressing against the buttons.

See 'stay depressed when desired' in this page: http://www.ikelite.com/web_pages/oly_5060.html
 
Pull out on the "stay depressed" knob and turn until its stop rests on shallower detent.
