MEIKON Housing for X-M1

Heroes,

I like my little Olympus for snorkeling but I do have an X-M1 that could serve as a water-borne platform and give me RAW files to work with in development, as well as more detailed files.

I located a couple of alternatives, though they both look like kit OEMed by MEIKON, a UK based manufacturer:

https://www.amazon.com/CameraPlus-Performance-Underwater-Housing-Fujifilm/dp/B00ULNRV12/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

The housing is supposed to work with an X-M1 and the XC 16-50, a zoom I acquired when I bought an X-A3 to handle the wides when I ran off on a safari in late 2016, so the recommended kit for this housing is on hand.

Question: anyone have any experience with this housing - or any underwater housings from the MEIKON people?

Just checking.

Peter
