Hello again. Thanks to the forum for all the help I've received so far.
I'm curious how you all deal with rain if your gear is not weather-proof? I know I could always get a proper rain cover, although I'll likely just fashion a plastic bag to suit, but how concerned do I need to be about stuff getting wet? After a couple of 'incidents' with the wife's phone and other tech getting water damage I'm maybe more conscious about this than is necessary for the camera, but I simply don't know how susceptible to the elements a DSLR is.
I'm only looking for some first hand experience really as to how you deal with the elements. Keeping it dry completely would of course be the best thing, but if that isn't practical, presumably if it does get damp just wipe it off before putting it back in the bag, and then when you get home make sure it is completely dry?
Thanks in advance.
