There is no greater assurance than being able to see your camera and o-ring seal through the back of the housing. Our signature open-groove design suspends the rear o-ring in a natural position that is easier to maintain and more reliable than forcing the o-ring into a channel. Once the housing is closed you can see the o-ring form a solid. waterproof seal.

Each lever can be extended using the optional?Trigger Extension?# 4077.95?for perfect spacing when using a right-hand handle.
