Rain cover for 5D2

[ding76uk]

I am looking for a rain cover as I may have to shoot some stuff in wet weather in the next cpl months.

I really do not want to go to expensive, although think tank have a great looking system, I want to keep costs down as I can't see it getting much use (fingers crossed the weather holds and I don't need to use it at all).

ebay.. search 'rainydays2008' top product and leaves a great ease of access to the back of your camera, Made for longer lenses, and another version for smaller lenses.

Thanks for that link john, looks good. I presume you have one? Do you think I could use one on a 24-70 as well as a 70-200 if I bought the 70-200?

Looks ideal and cheaper than the other stuff I have been looking at. The rainsleeves look good Richard, but I don't know if I could pay that much for what is essentially plastic bags.

Yes have 4 of them lol!

The smaller ones work fantastic with the 40D and 1D series with the 24-70 and all the other smaller lenses.
But you'll need the Larger one which is brill with both cameras for the 70-200 and even fits the 300
