I love my SP-350 as well as the FL-20 flash however on two subsequent dive trips the fitting on the PFL-01 housing has broken where the cable attaches. Both times I noticed it before leaving the surface and was able to save the FL-20. The first time Olympus covered it although not without some amount of hassle. I have not even bothered to contact them the second time. The problem is that the fitting and cable attach to the outside (left side) of the housing where it can come in contact with any number of things to include the boat as the crew hands the camera to the diver in the water. If they had mounted it on the right it would be somewhat protected. The second time it failed I was being extremely careful because of my first experience. Not sure what it touched but it was certainly not hard contact with anything. Other than that, the housing and flash work great.

Good product, works well and more and more cameras are having them made for their specific models.
