My MZ-S is largely electronic as well, so condensation is an issue here too. I wonder if the "extra" electronics of a DSLR really makes much of a difference? A DSLR also generates more internal heat so I also wonder if this is better at driving internal moisture away.

Hard drive/card-reader, batteries and charger(s). I don't own a pair of socks that heavy! No electronics are really "up" for condenced (or any other) moisture. The problems most likely won't show up at first - but after a while....

"All that stuff" amounts to a small bag smaller than a sock, Jens. MUCH less to carry than the 24-36 rolls of 35mm film I'd otherwise need. > As far as moisture is conscerned it's not just about rain or > water getting > into bags and stuff. > It's about condenced water.

Use it with reasonable care and it will just keep working and working. Godfrey __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - You care about security.
