What do you store your gear in when not using?

Have been looking for something to store the lot in and padded (in my case 1 DSLR 6 lenses). Perhaps a flight box or something...

Sorta displayed on an open shelf, known as Mount Pentax!
One day you'll find, 10yrs have got behind you.

Open shelves for stuff not in actual use. Plenty of air circulation.

I have actually just invested in this(please excuse the quick snapshot):

Mainly due to living in a cob and thatch house, which has high humidity. I am thinking of covering the glass with some Coca Cola vinyl or similar for security reasons, then it will look like a mini fridge on first glance.

A closed bag is a very bad idea as it has little air circulation and no light - add a little humidity and it's perfect for fungus to grow.

Would you be able to provide more details on this item? I can't exactly see the name of the company on the badge - does it say HuiTong? Cheers

That's interesting, although on the face of it could be a bit OTT.

I thought it looked the ideal gift for the photographer who (thinks) he has everything
