Durability Mies / Warranty 6 months only! / Function principle good

I had bought the body for a diving holiday. First, at depths up to 20 m everything worked fine, after 15 dives, I found, however, that at the transition between housing and dome port (tube with windscreen for the lens) a small but significant water penetration was observed. At this time the case was 7 months in my possession and Canon refused to repair on the grounds that this is the warranty period of only 6 months expired. CANON is on underwater housing ONLY 6 MONTHS WARRANTY! After a dreadful squabbling then I got my sign of goodwill of the dealer a new housing.

For in the meantime been beaten diving holiday I had bought a further housing. Here exactly the same defect occurred after 17 dives not less than 25 meters on, in this case, I received within 6 months replacement.

Twice exactly the same error after a very similar strain (15-17 dives, diving depth well above the specified 40 meters) I am afraid that here a fundamental product defect may be present in the design.

I am skeptical about my current exchange housing is now more than 6 months old, because I did not come for another dive trip. If the error occurs again, so I stay sitting on the damage as only 6 months warranty. This is bad in my eyes, disappointing service and not an argument for the WP-DC44, therefore only 1 star.
