OK, this question has probably been asked one thousand times, and I looked hard for an existing thread. Couldn't find one, so I will torture you "pros" yet again with the agonizing, never-to-go-away question. To grease or not to grease...the rings!
I am brand new to underwater photography...not photography itself, I can F-stop with the best of them. But underwater? A whole new universe for me. I'm starting with the SeaLife DC600 with external strobe and wide angle lens. Nice little basic setup for $1,000. However, nowhere, let me repeat...nowhere in the owners manual does it say you must grease the rings in your housing. IS THIS TRUE?
Naturally, I will be bringing the empty housing down on my first dive to check for leaks. Will I get one if I don't grease?
