Waterproof cover for camera and lens

[Gary Kinghorn]

Looking to buy a waterproof cover for my camera with lens fitted. Something that will take a 70-200 or 120-300 sport. I've seen a couple online, but it's hard to see what they exactly look like and if they are any good or not.

When I say waterproof I mean rain proof.

Not really in to the camo look either, but will if I have to.

Recommendations please????

The simplest and packable is the OpTech rainsleeve.

If you are likely to use the kit in rainy conditions frequently then there are other tougher and bulkier alternatives but the rainsleeve being so relatively inexpensive is good IMO

Do you really need a cover if the body & lens are weather sealed though? I find weather sealed lenses attractive for the very reason that I can use them in the rain without too much worry. Obviously if it's a monsoon then that's a different matter

I use a Kata rain cover (now Manfrotto I guess) but thats not big enough for the 120-300, so for that I use a chamois

I have one of these; http://www.outdoorphotographygear.co.uk/waterproof-covers

Nylon type thing which is light & takes up no room when in your pocket/bag.
