To prevent fungus ruining your lenses and/or costing you a costly trip to the service center (no, they don't cover fungus under warranty), lenses should be stored in an environment of ~45-55% relative humidity. Normal air is 90% in SG.. I would say it feels like 150% :bsmilie:
If you actually have such a room, say a room at home or office where you run aircon 24 hours a day, you might be able to skip the dry box. Some offices need full time AC for the equipment, so if you have one...
Myself I just use the drybox
In theory, if you use your equipment everyday, there won't be time for the spores to settle, take hold and grow.
In practical terms, it's entirely possible for fungus to grow in equipment in a 'dry' box.
oic...thx.....is it worth to get a drycabinet DB-30L with one year old for sgd 60??thx
not very sure about the price but do consider whether 30L will be enough for you in 5 years plan. I bought a 40L 2 years back. but now I added another 60L for lenses, camera body and mini DV tapes.
