Firstly, I was at around 25m when i noticed that it was leaking, from then, I did not go any deeper. I did not notice if more water entered the casing the longer i stayed but the end came when suddenly the camera flashed "Warning, Battery exhuasted". It was a new battery and it was only the...

Thanks for your tips. Actually I do have a pack of desiccant in the casing and when i got up, the whole thing was soaked. I did not get insurance and now I really feel like banging my head against the wall. I tried going to Nikon but they said its "beyond economical repair" due to water...

I bought a Nikon Coolpix 5900 for $629 with a 1gig SD card at COMEX and i managed to buy the casing (WP-CP4) for $310 (although other shops quoted me $270, just tt they did not have stock at that time and i desperately needed a casing). An original batt cost $31.50. I felt that the camera is...

Anemone Shrimps

Weird that i cant vote on this poll. My camera died on the third day in service, on its 5th dive. I was taking pictures of a pygmy seahorse when suddenly I noticed condensation on the inside of the casing. After checking, saw a strand of hair on the O-ring...haizzzz. Gone case liao...
