Being a California dude, I had no idea what humidity was until I first visited Mexico. I remember walking onto a balcony overlooking the Gulf and pulling my camera out to take a picture. Looking through the viewfinder, it appeared as if I was trying to shoot through a fogged up shower door.

If you live or plan to visit someplace warm and tropical, be prepared to battle condensation. Not only does it affect the sharpness of your photos, but it can also damage your gear.

In this video, I'll show you a simple trick for acclimating your camera and lens to humid environments.
