Greystoke,
Too close for comfort....
I have made it a habit with my Pelican and Otter cases to always have a stiff bristle tooth brush with me and look very closely at the seal and brush anything that looks like it could cause a leak.
In one of my older cams (aluminum boxed sets), I set them up in a creek one time and went away for a day...it rained that night and the water rose a meter over the cam and when I got back to it the next morning, the stream was lapping just below it....but because these older models are so tight, it was fine....at another location however, one of them went through a week long dunking with a raging torrent and the glass lens got sand-blasted...but it was still working inside...
Funny enough, I have a series of photos in my files of the first cam taking photos underwater...it was weird and did the submerged cam sense running water?? I'll never know.
Just gotta keep high and dry buddy....!
