Wendy,
We have a Dollar Max store here in Richmond that sells sheets of foam in
different colours for a dollar each. I have used this to replace the seals
on all my cameras, and it works a treat.

If you have such a store near you, try them, or let me know you address off
list, and I can send you some to try out.
James
