Condensation

[ofg-1]

Hello. With the hot weather, my camera lens and housing are getting condensation when they hit the cool water in the springs. Any ideas? It is an Intova camera.

You have one of those silica packs in there?
These work quite well if you have a housing.
We slip one in and microwave them between dives to dry them out.

The U/W photo stores have it; Backscatter, bluwaterphoto, etc.

In addition to the small packet of silica gel in the housing, I think it important only to open the housing in an AC area. Otherwise, the air inside will have a high humidity level and be more likely to fog your lens.
