can't say I blame you. Having waded into the saltmarsh here at low tide a
few years ago, I would not do it again. On that occasion I had (I think) a
Leica M3 and 2 lenses with me. I sank up to my nuts in mud and had great
difficulty extracting myself. Fortunately no harm came to the cameras or to
my nuts, and the tide had the good sense not to come in.
