Unlike the older Meikon housings, it also comes with a vacuum valve port, although the actual vacuum system is a separate accessory.

Question about this: I understand how a vacuum system works, but is it really necessary? I occasionally maintained the O-ring on my Meikon but didn’t really put that much effort in, and I never had a problem. Although I suppose that’s what people who never had a card fail on them say about single memory card cameras.
