It'll probably cost a bit more than 20 cents that way, but it'll probably be less than a new housing. |

My faith in > Olympus, on the other hand, is not repairable. Understandable. I've never had any dealings with Olympus, but I'd be pretty upset if I was in your shoes too. |

| Olympus PT-020 underwater case problems Is anyone using this case? If so, have you had any problems? The TTL adapter broke off of a brand new case and Olympus will not stand behind the warranty. This is a 20 cent part and they won't replace it so the whole case is useless. Broke on first use, before even getting in the water. Any other similar experiences? |
