I am from WNY and have been shooting fire apparatus for quite sometime. When I shoot I don't get all the rig information such as year, pump, etc as honestly I simply enjoy the rig for what it is. I have both digital and scans of regur film for everyone to enjoy and with that being said .... lets kick this pig shall we.

  Waterproofing DSLR
Posted by: grubber33270 - 05-20-2017, 09:21 PM - Forum: Photography Discussion - Replies (2)

Very stupid choice i made today, I went to a structure fire while it was raining (pretty Heavily) today. guess i didnt know that my camera really is not made to work while raining. when i got home tried turning the camera on, it did not. i switched out the battery and it worked for 1 photo then turned off again. I am going to leave the battery out overnight and see if that dries it all out. if it doesn't work after tomorrow then i guess i am full blown screwed. but if it does (crossing my fingers) how can I waterproof the camera so if i do go on structure fires in the rain i wont have this issue again?
