Sealing won't help much.
It's the water in the air INSIDE the camera, that will condence (especially
on metal parts - in the mirror box, card compartment, battery
ompartment)  - places where hot, humid air can enter when ever the camera is
out in the open. It will later condence when the temperature drops. That's
how nature works. It's a problem for all cameras/electronics. I guess if you
are talking about a summer holiday i Greece - it's not big a problem. But if
you are travelling in an less convenient environment it may very well be.
All the good lanscape shots are usually made very early in the morning or at
sundown/dusk - in my experience.

Of course for that, you usually keep the camera in the bag, until it
tempers. One or two hours is usually enough. Of course fully sealed
camera like the pro versions would be better for this, and it was one
thing I liked on the LX.

Or use a Leica ;-)

Good light!
