Check before diving
There’s nothing more secure than being able to see your camera and o-ring through the back of the case. Our signature open-groove design hangs the rear o-ring in a natural position, making it easier to maintain and more reliable than tying the o-ring to the groove. When the case is closed, you can see the o-ring forming a sturdy, waterproof gasket.
We recommend adding the optional Vacuum Kit with 1/2″ Valve #47012 to vacuum the housing and check for leaks before entering the water.
