Warranty Disclaimer
The PLA80 is a tool that, like any tool, requires knowledge and understanding to be
effective.
It is the user’s responsibility to learn the proper setup, use and care of the PLA80
system. Because we can only provide you with the information necessary to do so,
Gates does not warrant the contents of your housing (e.g. your camera and lenses)
under any circumstance. For the same reasons, Gates does not warrant optical
performance or image quality.
We warrant the PLA80 as an image acquisition tool for a period of 2 years. The
Laowa Periprobe lens is warranted by the original manufacturer, Venus Optics.
Refer to their website for warranty details.
If you have any questions about the setup, use and care of the PLA80, contact Gates
directly.
