Moisture-proof measures for moistureproof box of SLR camera

First, when the camera is not in use, no matter whether the lithium battery or the No.5 battery is used, the battery should be taken out of the digital camera and stored separately, especially the disposable battery cannot be placed in the camera for a long time. If there is no moistureproof box or moisture-proof equipment, the camera should be stored in a relatively ventilated and dry place.

Batteries are also afraid of dampness and moisture, so the storage of batteries is also very particular. The battery can't be stored when it is fully charged or dead. The best remaining capacity of lithium-ion battery is about 20%, and the temperature is between 0- 15℃. No matter what kind of rechargeable battery, it is best to charge it several times a year or half a year.

Secondly, for users who have more digital cameras and other electronic products at home, buying moistureproof box will make a mountain out of a molehill. If you don't buy it, you will be afraid that it will cost more to go to the digital camera repair station. From the Southern Digital Camera Maintenance Center, the author learned an economical and practical moisture-proof method: electronic moistureproof box, which is very simple, with a size of about 40L and a height of less than 50CM. Plug in the power supply, set the humidity requirement range and start working, saving energy, protecting the environment and consuming electricity.

3. For photographers, expensive cameras and lenses at home are always difficult to be protected from moisture by the above methods, so it is very necessary to have moistureproof box. At present, the price of moistureproof box on the market ranges from several hundred to several thousand, and the price of better electronic moistureproof box is more than 1,000 yuan.

A few hundred dollars to buy a moisture-proof box camera lens is safe and worry-free.

Whether it is a cheap home digital camera or a professional photographic equipment with a price of more than 10,000 yuan, we must pay attention to it in humid weather. With good maintenance habits, our equipment will be more fun to use. I hope the above content can help everyone!

Using a simple sealed plastic box can quickly dehumidify, but it has two major disadvantages: 1. It will quickly absorb the water in your moistureproof box to below 10%. Too low humidity (generally below 30%) will cause the organic matter on the camera to degum and crack because it is too dry, such as rubber and leather. If this happens for a long time, the lubricating oil in the mechanical part will dry up. Mold can grow when the humidity is 60%, and it will explode between 70% and 90%. Therefore, the minimum humidity of the camera should not be lower than 40%, and the maximum humidity should not exceed 60%, and 40% to 50% is the best.

2. Some hygroscopic absorbents contain calcium chloride. When calcium chloride is wetted and hydrolyzed, it will release a small amount of chlorine, which is very oxidizing and easy to corrode equipment. In addition, pay attention to this desiccant: after a long time, there will be a certain amount of liquid in the container where the desiccant is placed. Be careful not to knock it over, otherwise it will never dry in the camera!
