Abstract

An image capture device comprises a housing defining a cavity and a cover enclosing the cavity. The cover includes a user interface that receives a user input to the image capture device. The image capture device includes a support member extending into the cavity between the housing and the cover and a receiving member having a receptacle that receives a distal end of the support member. Contact between the support member and the receptacle prevents movement of the user interface beyond a predetermined threshold when the image capture device is under hydrostatic pressure.
