Shanghait Posted December 2, 2015 Share #1  Posted December 2, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) I recently took the SL on a fishing trip to the Farquhar Atoll in the Seychelles. My guide was taking photos of my fish and accidentally submerged the entire camera in the tide. He managed to fire off this shot underwater, inadvertently proving its water resistance. The SL survived completely unscathed. Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

Shanghait Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share #4  Posted December 2, 2015 Salt water?  yes, unfortunately. I gave it a good rinse in freshwater afterwards, and brushed the exterior of the mounting ring as to avoid any corrosion. fingers crossed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
