[QUOTE="aroy, post: 363900, member: 16090"] If you do not need to change lenses, then the AW series offer the best protection. They are water and dust proof. [URL="http://www.nikonusa.com/en/Nikon-Products/Product/Nikon1/Nikon-1-AW1.html"]Nikon 1 AW1 | Waterproof, Shockproof, Freezeproof Advanced Camera with Interchangeable Lenses[/URL] In case you want one with interchangeable lenses, you will need to figure out first what lenses you have/need and whether they are weather sealed. No point in having a weather sealed body with non sealed lenses. I live in Delhi, India and the climate is either extremely hot with temperatures reaching 46 degrees in shade, or hot and humid during rains, or cold and dry in winter. As long as you take basic care and desist from drenching your DSLR, any modern one will do. The least expensive and the lightest one is the D3300 with its kit lens. Costs around US$ 500/ for the body+lense+SD card+bag in India, all with 2 year warranty.
