Hi chua_jacky,
You might not want to put it in a dry box or cabi, the o-ring might be dried and cracked under a short time.

I just stored the housing and lens in a Lowepro bag (cool and dry place) and removed the o-ring into a ziplock bag with silicone grease costing (slightly heavy).
Cheers.

I would think the casing to be keep in a cool dry place, as there are small o-rings nears the push buttons. Airtight container i think is a bit overkill ... like using bazooka to kill an ant ... sorry for being straighforward
