Dry Bags for Electronics

We live in an electronic age. And while it is somewhat irritating to watch someone chat away on a cell phone while floating a remote river in Montana, as they say, times do change. And so it is not surprising that with the flood of electronics has come dry bags specifically designed for electronic items.

Now, there are two types of dry bags for electronics. For larger electronic items (such as a camcorder, laptop, full-sized DSLR) you'll want to use a dry box instead - as these provide rock solid protection from impacts as well as water.

By contrast, the dry bags for electronics below are small bags designed for specific uses, such as protecting a cell phone, MP3 Player and the like from water. Rather interestingly, some of these bags allow the electronic item to be used right inside the bag itself, allowing the user to keep the item out of danger from errant raindrops, waves or accidents.

All of the dry bags shown below are available through Altrec, which has nice selection of them available. They generally have free shipping, too.
