Altura Photo Professional Rain Cover for Large DSLR Cameras

Muy buena calidad y funcional

Beyond exceptional service. Not only does this product deliver on its service, it included a personal letter of no hassle warranty exchange from the owner and a large micro fibre wipe as shown (I wasn't expecting anything more than a token wipe). I normally don't look for return policies but their obvious pursuit of client satisfaction left me sharing my purchase experience around the office. Product is simply what it states, I haven't had a chance to weather it yet but it looks well made, seams are solid and clear plastic panels are durable and pliable. Nobody looks forward to rain but I expect to be well covered.

I got this rain cover about 5 months ago and didn't particularly like it. It is huge and doesn't work well with short lenses or lenses that extend. That's a lot of lenses. But, I recently got the new Tamron 70-200 G2 lens. The lens is a fixed ~8IN long, which is perfect for this rain cover. I took it out in a downpour this evening and it worked like a champ. My Canon 80D and the G2 are both weather sealed, but I wouldn't take them out in the rain without the rain cover. Too much water, then you are dealing with fungus (I assume, since I don't ever plan to let that happen). In any event, the rain cover did well. The camera/lens stayed dry. Its probably obvious, but I used the lens hood. That combo not only kept the camera and lens dry, but not even a drop got on the glass. Eventually my hands got moist, but I still had my arms attached to my hands, so water is going to eventually get there. The second most important point is I could still use the camera easily-- though live view was better than the viewfinder. To stress it a bit, I tried video. I expected a huge muffling sound, but that was overwhelmed by the rain drop sounds. Overall, this is a great product at a low price. Even if you only use it once a year, if you have a 70-200 lens (Canon, Nikon, Tamron, Sigma) it would be a good idea to have on hand.

Must have if you want to shoot in rain.

Good cover but very stiff material
