One of the differences between digital cameras and film cameras is the digital camera body tends to heat up. As a result, there could be condensation or condensation in the water-resistant protective or in camera lens when the humidity in the high protective.
Therefore, you should avoid opening protective in moist places, like on the ship or on a wet beach.
No less important, you need to replace the battery on each dive if you do not want to risk running out of battery. Divers who perform more than one dive a day to prepare a backup battery.
When out of the water after diving, flush and shake-shake the camera protector with water to remove sand or salt elements inherent in the patron. Then dry the entire surface of the protector with a dry cloth.
Separate entire surface protectors and the sidelines with a towel. If there are sand or foreign body, shake protector with water and wipe again until he was out and dried. Put the protector on the table or chair and a towel to wipe your entire head to prevent water or a hair from his head fell into the protector when opened. But do not do it just above the open protector.
When you open a water-resistant protective, do it quickly. Replace batteries quickly, consider O-ring, the hole and the back side protective of foreign objects, enter one or two packages of silica gel, and closed again.Turn off the camera power if your digital camera models can be turned off when in a waterproof protector. If without this feature, set the camera to shooting mode, turn off the LCD monitor and wait until the camera went into sleep mode automatically. Perform this procedure as soon as possible and as best as possible before the next dive, so that the silica gel packets get enough time to absorb the water vapor in the protector.
Before you dive again, do a test of the protective, check for a few seconds the first time and for much longer second time. Be careful storing water-resistant protective under direct sunlight. Protector and your digital camera will heat up and cause condensation when in the boat or dive.
