Re: After all this, what are the "facts"?

Yes I have seen that and others.

I guess that's my point: un-cynically I want to take guidance from Oly. Do I expose my camera to the conditions demonstrated in the videos or do I limit the exposure to what the IP rating indicates?

If they feel that it's necessary to leave us on our own in terms of risk, it seems only fair to tell us unequivocally what the camera is designed and has been tested to take.

Otherwise one must just rely on anecdotes - mostly successful but some not.
