Water in Underwater camera?


Question

Posted

Used my new underwater camera yesterday and noticed that when I dropped the fish in the water, air bubbles started coming out from the spot the cord enters the camera.

Is this normal or is there a leak? This would mean water is getting inside which could freeze.

Thanks for the help.

I guess for me it would depend on if you saw water in the camera or not. Since you say fish, I assume you have an Aqua-vu. I know the camera is mounted in the fish shell and the shell can be changed so I would assume that there is some air inbetween the actual camera and the shell that could bubble up when dropped in the water. If you can see water in the camera face area, then yes you have a problem and need to call Nature Vision!

Sounds like what happened to me. Water got into the camera the first time i used it. I could see the water inside where the circuit boards are and it fritzed out the whole thing.

Last year when I bought my ZT it took me three before one didn't leak.

      There’s critters out and about.  Get yourself some cellular trail cams and you’ll see.

      One more day….. but I’m thinkin’ my guess was a little early…. For this year.

      It wouldn't be the first time I've heard the USS Skunked Again breaking ice! I left this morning, the rain really did a number to the ice. I'll bet the Partridge River will be open by the weekend.

      My yard is pretty open, but narrow. I think I'll be fine with reception in the areas I'm thinking. I try to keep the hill somewhat natural, but my wife wants to see the lake better. The video's I've watched, they have topped the trees and mounted the dish. I would this the swaying would affect the signal. Does Starlink help you with using WiFi for calling? My T-Mobile service sux at the cabin. Did you bury your cable?

      I'm on the wide part of the channel going in to Black Bay. We won't see Paul B. For years.

      Welcome back. Wow it's been since 2018 it looks like. Did you ever "I'm tightening up my footprint and want to build on my Bozeman lot on the Gallatin"?  😏

      You're probably right. This isn't official since I've already lost, but I'll make my supplemental guess for May 6th since it's still open. 😄   As long as I can snake my way along the shore and/or plow through some dark ice on the 8th, I'll be happy. I love aluminum boats!

      For all of my "problems" with getting a clear signal it's worth it. I can spend more time at the lake because I can work during the day and play or get things done at night. Toss in that I can record and watch a football/hockey/basketball game when I'm done at the end of the day....priceless.   Like your place, our property is more natural and I was worried about having to cut down a bunch of trees. I like that people have to get up close to see our place from the lake through the trees. Luckily I didn't have to do much to get enough a signal that works for me. If I needed to be on video calls, I probably would run the dish down to the shore to get a better view of the sky.   BTW - the main problem with mounting the dish on a tree is that the tree still has a canopy that will block the signal. The best option would be to top a tree and then mount it on the clear-cut top.
