Any air tight box will do.. even tubberware.. go buy a big bottle of silicon at most photos shop.

I got the same one as you at Giant. $8.90 only. Fits my S602Z quite nicely. Silica gel can be bought at $4 at carrefour. Dunno whether other places are cheaper or not.

Use a hydrometer to meaure the humility. Ideal humility is around 4x% to 5x% from I read from the posting here.

The last time I went to Carrefour, i couldn't find the dry boxes. Can you tell us where exactly it is? I was at the area where they sold plastic boxes, but couldn't find them. Also at the camera section I couldn't find them.

It was out of stock but I went last week there is one pile of them. Its just next to the disposable camera... besides the dry cabinet. The brand is am-pro.
