[QUOTE="Blade Canyon, post: 404304, member: 15302"] Can you recommend a good quality waterproof bag to store light camera gear (one DSLR and large lens)? I get the chance to sail from NC to Bermuda on a 34 foot boat in May. We did this 12 years ago, and it was great, but last time we ruined several cameras that got hit by salt spray. (One bumpy wave shoots saltwater over the sides, and it only took a few drops to corrode the electronics on those cameras.) For this trip, I just bought a Nikon AW120, that is waterproof, sand proof, etc. I can't wait to turn on the video and haul it to the top of the mast, or even drag it behind the boat mounted on a float, but the picture quality isn't as good as I will want for some boat shots and also for when we land in Bermuda. I want to take along a D600 and probably my 28-300mm lens. Saltwater can and has gotten into the boat in strange ways. Our CD player got knocked out on the first day last time even though it was mounted below and the weather was moderate, so I want to make sure the D600 is stored in an absolutely watertight bag. On a whitewater rafting trip, the guides had these big rubber packs for my camera, but I don't come up with things like that in my searches. No matter what pack I buy, the camera, lens, and accessories will be double bagged in ziplocs, too. This is probably the closest thing I could find: [url]http://www.thewaterproofstore.com/witzlocker2.html[/url] Thanks in advance if you can share some experience here. [/QUOTE]
