Dehumidifier

There may be many members here who uses a dehumidifier box to store their cameras and stuff.

Could someone please advise what is the best Relative Humidity range to set for storage.

I was told that too high RH would still cause fungus, and too low may damage the electronics of a camera.

Please advise.

Think between 45% to 55% is for cameras....

I usually kept mine at 50%.....

I dunno if different cameras need different settings.... Any experts wanna confirm?
