I guess that idiot never understood that weather sealed ? water-proof. My Olympus E-M1 II and the 12-100 lens are weather-proof. I just wonder what that means exactly. If it rains heavily I can continue to use the camera outdoors? -- Alfred Molon Olympus E-series DSLRs and micro 4/3 forum at http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/MyOlympus/ http://myolympus.org/ photo sharing site |

If it rains heavily I can continue to use the camera outdoors? Weather-sealed/Weather-proof means just that, not water-proof, or dive ready. Your E-M1, like my X-T2 is Weather-sealed, if fitted with a Weather-sealed lens they should be able to tolerate rain, snow, and dusty conditions. However, do not take all of that for granted, and it is always best to wipe and/or dry the kit off before opening any lens, or sealed covers. If you are going to actually take the camera into water it is time to invest in a proper water housing such as one of these from Meikon. They provide for Olympus and Fujifilm, and are reasonably priced. https://meikon.com.hk -- Regards, Savageduck |
