Canon 1000d overseas - to buy or nt?

I see.. got a Class 6 Transcend SDHC card. Should be quite ok.

Yep I've already bought a UV filter

Oops... I missed that part... in that case you may want to check out the price of a CP filter instead.. maybe it is cheaper in China...

Read some threads about a DIY drybox in the forum too.. like using ziplock bag with thirsty hippo and stuff. Seems like a good idea:bsmilie: Btw, what is the device I can buy to measure humidity?

be careful with thirsty hippos, they are quite thirsty and secondly they collect the water in the lower compartment of the container. Silica gel is a better option, IMHO.
You should keep an eye on the humidity once you are back to Singapore. The device is called Hygrometer and I guess you can get it in hardware and DIY shops.

Oh ok.. will beware the over-thirsty hippos. :bsmilie:

What is the humidity range DSLRs should be kept at?
