Hello

Will be visiting friends in Singapore next year - any advice for where to get some good shots from ?

Also I'm concerned about the humidity - should I be investing in a weather resistant body and lenses ?

thanks

Hello there.
Botanical gardens. Clark quay. Sentosa island. Indian quarter. China town.............. Take a tripod for night shots the opportunities are everywhere.........In fact anywhere in Singapore you point a camera there will be a shot.
You will love it.

I just spent a few days there at the end of a trip to Thailand. The view from the cable car is pretty good, as is the viewing deck of the Marina Sands hotel.

As far as weatherproofing goes, I took the gear in my sig, and the only issue I experienced was going from air conditioned hotel rooms to outside and having condensation form almost immediately. Be ready to wipe moisture from viewfinder and front element.
