    Beach Boy, that looks like a nice bag

    What is the price on it? I'd love to compare them side-by-side. I'm a nut for product testing and comparing equipment

    Maybe when I get my ThinkTank Hydrophobia, we can meet up and put both bags on a dead camera body I have and soak the two with a hose

    You can also just get a watersealed camera.

    I would say the thinktank is better constructed, they always over-engineer their products. The thing is that kata had it years before.

    I've had huge splashes on the sailboat and it handled fine, although salt water drying on the lens was a real pain to clean... you can even see some on the picture above.

    The kata E-690 is about $45, which IMO is a way better price/value ratio.
