Maybe you can consider buying a travel guide for that region; like Lonely Planet Scandinavian Travel Guide: http://shop.lonelyplanet.com/Primary/Product/Destination_Guides/Regional_Guides/Europe/PRD_PRD_2226/Scandinavian+Europe+Travel+Guide+9th+Ed.jsp?bmUID=1251730946935 I am sure you can get...

Thanks a lot for all the advice. This evening I actually went to Sports Connection and got one which fits perfectly for my bag @ only $10. Quite good quality as well. I guess this is case closed for me. :-) /Thomas

I noticed your exposure is 8sec. If you up your F-stop to, let's say, F/20 or so you can get a longer exposure. Hence, might capture more cars. /Thomas

Great.. Thanks a lot:) I'll check them out. /Thomas

Hi With regards to a remote, I would recommend Phottix Cleon. I have one myself and am very happy so far. It is both wired and wireless. Take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycPGfnndTZ4 It is sold by a Hong Kong company on ebay (Hong Kong Supplies). Just search for...

If rubber or plastic parts would crack after being in the dry cabinet (RH 40-50) for a longer period of time, how would all the camera gear and other equipment with plastic/rubber look like in Europe where the RH level might be down to 30 or even lower? Just my two cents. /Thomas

Thanks a lot guys for many good advice. I'll absolutely make sure I buy something that will last and which is big enough for some expansion. BTW: Great acrobatics at the Singapore Airshow today:D /Thomas

Thanks for the advice Robbie. Any recommended brands regarding hygrometers? I think I will go for a Digi-Cabi dry cabinet, so I assume you mean/recommend to get that hygrometer to monitor the actual RH level in the cabinet? /Thomas

Thanks again for the comments. I will definitely take a look at the digi-cabi cabinets. At the moment, I only have one body and one lens, but planning for at least a couple of more lenses. In addition I have a couple of compact cameras as well as some other things that might be good to put...

Hi Thanks a lot for the link. I'll definitely go to the IT show and look out for any good offers. /Thomas

Hi All I was just wondering if it is recommended to get a dry cabinet for my camera equipment? If so, what brand(s) do you recommend and at which RH level should I store my gear? Thanks a lot. /Thomas

Take a look at the Cokin P-series filter system. www.cokin.com /Thomas
