[QUOTE="Bukitimah, post: 65784, member: 7507"] Well, many readers have asked if the D300 is water tightness enough under the rain. I got a chance to 'try' it out recently. I was in Vietnam mid week and travel to Mekong river for a boat ride. I would consider it a boat but a little canoe that can takes 4 passengers with 1 rower. Once on board, it starts to rain but quite light. I still manage to steal a few shots. [IMG]http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc370/Bukitimah/DSC_3639.jpg[/IMG] Then it starts to pour and we are in the middle of the river. There is no turning back but just continue upstream to the bigger boat waiting for us. That 15 minute ride is like hours. I tug my camera under my body but I am still totally soak even with my rain coat on. I always keep a spare rain coat in my camera bag. I would advise to do that just in case. You an see from the photo taken before the rain, only a handful wore rain coat and those without them are in for a big trouble. [/QUOTE]
