Is dry cabinet necessary and useful ? Can anyone recommend a decent one which I can keep for my Sony F717, plus a couple of filters and the telephoto convertor. Does it eats up a lot of electricity and increases your bill ? Thanks.
wow.. $10,000 ginseng and $10,000 dollar bill must use safe liao.. under lock and key.Originally posted by E1g3
It's must have.
Lens repair cost about $50 per lens multiply by the no of lens you have. Buy a small one around $100.00 and have peace of mind.
also can store your $10,000 ginseng, birdnest, $10,000 dollar bill etc

Go to the photoshop at the first floor at the row of shops diagonally from carrefour, I was there two days ago and saw they are selling those white/blue plastic dry boxes for S$19.90 or so. I have several of these together with some of their Dry-cabi (which they are selling) and they are just fine for your Sony. It also has a humidity meter built-in and I think they are quite accurate. Buy a box of silica gel as well from that shop, nice people.

Read that some overseas user build one with light that is on 24 hours. This is to use UV light that stop/kill all fungus activity. Some uses UV light(black light). Anyone tried this method here?

I think 40-55% r/h is what's recommended.

using a dry box and silica gel..... the r/h keeps hovering at 20%
is that too low?
