Their housings leak badly in light surf or beach. Pathetic. I even bought the vacuum.

I don't know about light surf, but I've taken my SeaFrogs housings (two of them) down to 10-30m over a hundred times now, and neither of them leaked.

Thanks for your sharing experience.  I love the seafrogs course of business, image and overall offering, but on both products for me, a total failure.  I think it's because I "work" with aggressive conditions, shooting from a surfing lineup.  But the "warranty" service was ridiculous.  They didn't even believe me ("please send in a video of how you load your camera in our housing" - how patronizing after spending 1000 bucks!! ).  They completely challenged my ability to load the housings,  (I have over 20 years in water photography). I'm pretty sure the housings are OK in calm conditions. Hopefully they will get better!
