    I had a rain cover for my old cam, but it was too big for the camera I use now. I have been intending to make one for my new camera, but I haven't gotten around to it. Thanks for the reminder, I need to get that done.

    So far I've rain proofed my gear by staying inside.

    ... I still managed to get water damage though :busted:

    I did buy a few plastic camera covers, but with my setup, they don't really work that well. Plus they are noisy as hell.
