    Keen to get peoples view on how they store their cameras before and after its use. For example during the monsoon when things are damp or when moving about in a NP during the monsoon when gear can get wet etc etc

    Hi, I make sure there’s packets of silica gel in different compartments of camera bag. It’s a desiccant, absorbs moisture.

    1. The best option is a camera storage cabinet. However, more than cost, it requires a dedicated space and is plugged into power throughout the year. This is best if you have enough space and options.

    2. Silica gel is better for keeping off moisture. Bring it back to open air once there is sunlight.

    3. Try to build your portfolio over weather-sealed options (costly affair)
