At first i set mine at 50% but it always go lower than that to around 43-46% , so after some observations , i settle it at 55% . It will be around 50-58% whenever i open & close it ... Maybe have to depend on which Brand & Model . :unsure:

no hard or fast rule. mine are set at 53% - because i forgot what it was and they get reset after a power trip/ off. :lol: but i remember initially i set it at 50% according to the manufacturer's recommendation for lenses/ optics then some of my lenses' grips started to turn white (drying up). so i pushed it up a little more, between 50 and 55%.

but good to hear you've bought a digital one, the analog ones will make you die of frustration trying to get the rH right. unless you're not too fussy abt rH accuracy...

Hi Bulldog,
I got mine for $99 (30L) at peninsula plaza opposite CP.
So not too shabby of a price.

Thanks Johnston, Ming, and Simon for the recommendation.
