Re: DIY blimps

Thanks for the links!

Wrapping towels around the camera had very little effect in reducing the noise.

I'm eventually going to build myself a box similar to the first link your shared. I've already purchased a hard cased storage box for a power tool from the local classified ads, which i think should work quite well for an outer case. I may not be fully waterproof, but i don't need it to be.  Now i need to locate some foam to fill it with and some type of filter/glass. I'm trying to do this on the cheap, so it may take some time to source all the materiel... Which is fine, because i don't think i want to undertake this project while still on crutches. Once if get it built, i'll probably respond back to this thread.
