Hi Scott,
I always put in a bag with silica gell crystals, as I do with all my kit.
Even my Den, Computer/Camera has a dehumidifier in it, maybe a bit OTT now but when i had my old cameras/lenses the last thing you want is condensation, fungus in the lenses is caused by damp/warmth/dark corners.
And Silica Gell is the best stuff, 7dayshop.com did have it for sale, large bags of sachets the same as you get in the boxes with new cameras/lenses.
I hope this helps.

What you call blizzard in your part of the world is what we call a light misting of snow in our part of the world (I presently have 1 12 meter of snow in my backyard). That said, I use my cameras in snow and cold weather anytime I see a use for it and never have any problems. Come to think about it, I don't see too many Canon or Nikon on my outings. Wonder why?I took the twins out today, thier not identical (one has live view)

The UK camera listings on Ebay are full of them!
I was a Nikon user, sad I know.
Give me the K20 any day
Well after seeing your first attempt in your “gallery” , From one old codger that’s been around cameras for to long.
In a few words “your learning fast” keep it up.

Talking of Ebay, I currently have some dopey prat in Serbia trying to get my name and full bank details out of me on the basis that he "cannot use Paypal or credit cards from here". He's very convincing, even gave me links to his Facebook and Myspace pages so I'd "know I am real person"
I'm keeping him dangling by asking lots of questions. He has an answer for everything
The reality is that he's probably in an Internet Cafe in Lagos and has hijacked untold number of social networking site profiles.
I'm noticing a LOT of these lately, and they all have brand new ebay usernames and 0 feedbacks. Hmm

My point is, that Ebay have just made the rules to suit them and no one else.
Also have you noticed they are leaning toward the "Big Boys" with big turnovers they get very competitive rates far better than the average guy selling.

Personally I would either buy the Pentax flash or a Sigma version with the P-TTL
It depends what you are going to use it for, If you are looking for the best image quality go for one that I mentioned or one of the other brands that has P-TTL.
Cheap is not always the best way.
