Wet weather covers.

[Raptor Mike]

Can anyone recommend a wet weather cover that will fit my Canon 60D with a tripod and my Sigma 150-500 please. Also if it fits my 17-50 and 55-250 that would be good too, but if I need to get a couple of different ones then that's fair enough.
Thanks
Mike

Have a look at www.lenscoat.com or www.wildlifewatchingsupplies.co.uk they will give you an idea.

I have lens covers from both and a rain cover from 'Lenscoat' they are very good. Lenscoat are the better quality but that is matched by their price.

Thanks Bruce
I meant the see through ones though. Although those links are handy as a camo one may come in hand for when I go bunny shooting (with an air rifle and get some photos while there).

Think www.parkcameras.co.uk, www.wexphotographic.com and www.optech.com do them.

Optech definitely do and Wex sell them. About £5-£10 I recall

Gone for these. Got a good rating in an old Outdoor Photography magazine although it took a while for me to click that these are the same ones, I was just looking through amazon and came across them. lol

I bought a pack of those and found them to be too much hassle.

Getting to the controls is a problem because the bit that says 'RAINSLEEVE' narrows too much - I cut it off in the end. The version in the pic is almost certain to be too long for your shorter lenses - and changing lenses with the cover on is near impossible (or at best, very risky). The cut-out for the eyepiece won't stay in the correct position unless you trap it using a viewfinder eyecup. There's no cut-out for the LCD screen, so you can't review pics/histograms properly.

Mine is the version without the flash cover. It's basically two plastic bags joined together (plus a bit of string on one end) - it might last for a few outings if handled with care.
