I need to buy some waterproof bags to put photographic rucksacks in for upcoming antarctic trip (zodiac proof) anyone got any ideas on this? Cheers Pete

The ones with carrying straps are what you want - easier to carry when filled than the roll-top only ones. And if you sink, wear it and you'll float.
Dont even consider the Lowe Dryzone ones - I got one and its rubbish. Major design flaws and not convenient to use. Ortliebs wrapped around a normal bag is a much better solution.
