Do they take the cameras and lens out from the box and store them in a dry cabinet before they close up? I suppose thats impossible?
the store is air-conditioned, so it remains pretty dry.
Goes to show that the lenses and cameras are made of sterner stuff than most people give them credit for.
All those "how should I store my lens/camera inside the dry cabinet?" threads seem to suggest that the fungus is just waiting to infest the gear within 24 hours...
outside got UV light mah from the sun..
in short, they are turning on AC for 24 hours?

:thumbsup: Amen ...With a paranoid mind, nothing is safe.....
here's my feel.
the shop owners or staff dun take out the lens (out of the shop) to try/shoot and sweat or other moisture that gets accumulated on the lens vs the lens you been using for every shoot out.
so while those lens in the shop are safe just by storing in the shop
those lens in your home is not safe cos you are using it pretty often?
although using your lens often can help to reduce the risk but then how u maintain after use is another issue.
- do you chuck it aside on your table after each use
- do you chuck inside your camera bag (which might gets wet in rainy days)
etc
