Top few things to get after a DSLR

[DDIONN]

but some said that dry box is not that good??
dry box is obviously cheaper tgt with the gel. what do ye think?

Hmm dry box is obviously not that good compared to cabinet as it requires replacement for the gel in the box and a cabinet no need. That's why..

Skip the box just get the dry cabinet. Saves you the trouble of having to check the humidity level and change gel especially if you use the camera frequently. And you can take your time to take out/put back your equipment without worrying about the humidity getting into the cabinet since the cabinet will take care of the humidity level by itself.

btw,

as for the dry cabinet, is it better to get the digital one? so that i do not have to change the settings here and there. in another words, i just have to set the humidity level and thats it, i can just leave it there.
any recommendations??
and one more thing, do u guys get your dry cabinet from stores like carrefour, major camera shops or from the mass sales? like reddotphoto?

Digital as compared to analogue? Neither requires you to keep changing settings, they just mean a difference in the way the humidity level is displayed (e.g digital vs analogue watch).

Some shops provide home delivery, which can be a blessing if you take public transport. You can ask around. My friend bought from carrefour, he added in some other groceries stuff to meet the amount for home delivery.

I got mine from reddotphoto. Order just took less than 2 days to process and deliver. I gotten the analogue one. It just took about a day for the humidity to stabilise between 40-45 deg.
