I have no fungus problems with a few simple precautions. The simplest is to leave your cameras in the parts of the house where you live, except not near bathrooms or the kitchen. I have mine in an upstairs office. Summers aren't that long, and the only time when humidity might be a problem. If you use them regularly, just expsosure to sun will keep fungus away. If you don't, Silica gel will keep them for short stays. If we have a really humid summer I keep them in a closet with a single 25 watt bulb burning until the humidity calms down. Northern climates are nothing, try keeping cameras dry in Jacksonville. Tom At 12:05 PM 3/26/98 -0500, you wrote: >Hi ! Luggers >I am new in this group.
