“IT’S NOT A CASE OF IF IT’S going to happen, but when it’s going to happen.” So the saying goes. I’m talking about the underwater photographers’ worst nightmare – a camera flood.I’ve been extremely lucky, having experienced it only once. By lucky, I mean that it happened in a rinse tank, and I managed to save my expensive DSLR camera and lens.
The event left a mental scar and, as you’d expect, a phobia of it ever happening again.
If you’re a regular reader of DIVER Tests you’ll remember the crusade on which my predecessor John Bantin embarked to inform the underwater photography world about the benefits of vacuum leak detectors.
I was a total convert, as were a few underwater housing manufacturers that have designed and fitted, as standard, a generic vacuum system to their product ranges.
For those of us who don’t own one of these housings, the only solution was, and still is, a third-party system.
Some models have appeared from across the Atlantic and have already featured on these pages. Meanwhile I have been using and evaluating for the past year a system from Europe – the Leak Sentinel from Slovenia-based Vivid Housings.
