#36587 packing and transporting my rig

Posted by whitey on 09 July 2004 - 01:00 AM

I'm not experienced with traveling with a housed SLR (yet), but like you I've been getting lots of hints from previous threads about travel setup.

My solution has been to purchase a Lowepro dryzone 200 for the camera gear (to keep the non-waterproof stuff dry) and a separate Lowepro Nature Trekker for housing/ports/strobe.  This is more aimed at local travel rather than airline travel in my case.  It seems like a good setup to me, but I haven't field tested it yet.

BTW, I've travelled extensively with the Nature Trekker in the past as carry-on, and although it's slightly too big for this purpose technically, I haven't been stopped from taking it onboard a plane yet.
