Does anyone have practical experience with burping a WWL-1B (in bayonet mount) with dry gloves. Is is feasible, and how to do? I have an Oly OM-1 and pana 12-42 in NA housing coupled with a NA 35 port and a WWL-1B attached with a bayonet mount. That leaves very little room between the NA housing and WWL to reach the red lever. It's a two-hand-fine motor-skills operation to pull the red lever, and rotate the WWL to burp it. It's difficult, even without gloves (warm water diving). Though I haven't tried underwater, it seems near impossible to do wearing dry gloves. I'm looking to bring with the rig when diving my local waters, where dry gloves are absolutely needed, so I need to solve that particular challenge.

Mostly diving the cold and murky waters of Scandinavia or the equally cold waters of mines in Sweden and Germany. Given the local diving conditions most of my photography is CFWA and macro, but also trying to make photogrammetry work with a 360 camera in mines. Not quite there yet :-)
