humidity - Photography

[broussel]

Hey guys!!

I live in Florida, the humidity capitol of the country!!!

I frequently bring my camera to work with me, since I work outside all day
my F100 is outside as well. I keep it stored in my toolbox inside its camera
bag of course, Im concerned about the humidity affecting my camera, can
anyone shed some light on this subject?? If so, any suggestions on how to
protect it from this place...

thanks Bob...

If your really worried about it, you could put some desicant (silica gel)
in the bag with your camera. But I wouldn't worry about it. The F100 is
a pretty tough camera.

Same here. I use a small silica bag such as ships inside computer equipment
in my camera bag. I also avoid taking the camera directly out from an air
conditioned environment into the heat because that can cause condensation
inside the camera.

Go Bucs.
