Some inexpensive Waterproof Underwater Housing Case for GX7?

It is a mystery that manufacturers such as Neewer and Meikon (for poor man) which are available are gear for GM1, GH4, GF's, Sony A6000, A7 and not for the GX7 being this camera of similar dimensions to A6000 and very popular. Or Im making a bad search. Nauticam is not for me, too expensive.

GH2 Moisture Vulnerability

Have any of you experienced water damage or malfunction with your gh2? I'm always unsure of how much moisture I can allow to collect on this camera before aborting. Not asking for camera cover suggestions, just your experience with water landing or collecting on the body. A good example is stopping the car in a rainstorm running out to grab a shot and the camera gets moist. Thanks in advance.

Waterproof housing with 14 - 140 zoom

This is a simple low cost waterproof DIY housing for my 2 GH13's. It's not for underwater only ON water, will take splashes etc.
I use this shooting from a Jetski/boat on the ocean etc.

It allows use of the 14 - 140 kit lens with ND to protect lens glass, the waterproof sleeve expands to full zoom and protects quite well. The controls are electrical cable glands and controls Focus/Exposure lock (one push sets focus and locks it, the others are record, power and LCD/EVF switch. These controls are all i need, camera runs shutter priority 1/100 and auto ISO. Allows more protection than say a Kata soft camera cover.

In the process of putting smaller button controls like the LCD/EVF one.

Total costs Under $50
