I took this shot in at the San Francisco Conservertory of flowers. I did not delete it because I kind of like the blurry effect.
BUT is there a way to prevent lenses from fogging up in green houses or extreamly humid conditions like this ??

    Nice moody looking image
    Don't know how to prevent fogging myself, may need to let lens acclimate to area 1st ne_nau.gif
    Would be interested in an answer myself.

    A lens cloth is good, as well as allow your lens to adjust to your surroundings. Sometimes that helps. I usually have a cleaning cloth along with me in those situations in case the camera never adjusts to the environment.

    When I went to Thailand we had the same problem all the time. The important factor for us was making sure that the camera had warmed to the temperature of the area we were in before removing the lens cap (or for us just turning it on and letting the lens open). The humidity usually turns itself to condensation when an area colder than the outside temperature is exposed. :)

    Thanks I will keep in mind bringing a cloth along. Waiating there was not as practical one room can be almost like a desert the new a jungle, but it was a need place.

    I was also wondering if it can form inside the lens and create a problem that will ruin the lens?
