There are also other reasonably inexpensive ways to protect your camera in the rain such as Op/Tech rain sleeves (of various sizes) which can be had for as little as $7. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1168171-REG/op_tech_usa_9001022_8_small_rain_sleeve.html However, there are other benefits, such as protection from dust intrusion to a camera and lens system with weather sealing. -- Regards, Savageduck |
