My first TG3 popped open as I was climbing onto a boat after a dive (got caught on my bcd and somehow triggered both the lock and open switch on the mem card door, flooding it.) It was replaced under warranty. Prior to that it survived many salt water snorkels and dives with no signs of issues, corrosion etc. That said, I shelled out for a dive housing for the replacement when it arrived, to me it was worth the piece of mind. That setup is going strong for 4-5 years now.
