how realiable are housings? I guess it would depend on the make but I cringe at the thought of buying a $1500 housing then having it leak on my just as expensive DV camera.
in addition to using it when diving I would like to use it to film some surfing.
I dont know the first thing about housings but what im mainly wanting to know is
1) how often do leaks occur?
2) does even a small leak spell the end for your camera?
3) can you repair housings after they leak?
4) would a housing for surfing and a housing for diving need to be different? I would imagine in the surf the camera would get tossed around a fair bit.
thanks
