Waterproof pouches? - The DIS Discussion Forums

ZephyrHawk · 07-31-2009, 10:37 AM

So DH wants to go canyoneering. Personally, I can think of quite a number of things I'd rather do, but I'm willing to humor him. Thing is, he's lured me into this with a promise of good photographic opportunities at the end. Canyoneering, apparently, involves a certain amount of wading/swimming, so cameras need to be protected.

1. Any recommendations on waterproof camera pouches?

2. Any that will fit a DSLR?

3. Should I just forego the nice camera and let DH risk his point and shoot?

Thanks, oh great photo-board of knowledge.

I've used an EWA Marine bag successfully for years. I only use it with my non-primary DSLR and I only use it when I am on or around the water. I used to use it for underwater shots, but I've had too many small leaks to make me comfortable doing that.
