I suspect only a small number of people will find this interesting but for some reason Harvey Norman are pushing out Sony AKA-AF1 anti-fog sheets for $5 where RRP is $29 and next cheapest on Staticice is $19. Apparently reuseable up to 200 times each! (2 sheets in pack)

Looks like it'll fit all Sony action camera cases and I reckon you'd be able to stuff it into other action camera cases.

Great for people who are using swim/dive housings which are notorious for fogging up with temperature change.

Also if you just like things dry!

  even at $5 they would be making a profit, how much would it cost to make two of these.. over priced accessories.
  Good price compared to normal though.

  I guess in theory any of those 'do not eat' silica gel things from dry foods would be ok…

    In Nobbs' link below, there is one of those silica gel bags in the package containing the anti-fog sheets. It's marked "Throw away".
    If your theory is right, this product is the ultimate con!

      According to the very reliable resource WikiHow, we're all suckers and should be re-using them…

      Haha I agree with the commment about that eBay post though… why would the anti-moisture sheets need a drying agent haha…

        But after drying how would you use them again? What kind of packet can you store them in where they would still keep absorbing moisture.

  I guess cheap Chinese knockoff from eBay would be similar? They just look smaller to me but probably is just the picture

    I like to believe that the official branded product is actually significantly better than the $1 eBay knock-offs (but granted that isn't always the case). I decided to go branded because it was 83% off. Compared with the regular price I would've gone generic.
