I tested the W90 in a bowl of water

The manual that comes with the W90 says to replace the seals once a year. Where can we find new seals?

that is a very good question. I have had mine about 10 or 11 months and am concerned about the seals.

I think you're supposed to send it back to pentax to have them do that. I've had my optio w60 for 3 years, I just keep the seals lubricated (I use vacuum grease) and have never had any issues.

Thanks for the tip!
