Question 1

How are the interior velcro straps intended to be used?

Accepted Answer

Not the easiest rain cover to use but other than getting under a tent or using a specific kind of poncho I haven't found a better option. The are 2 velcro straps.  One is attached to the inside of the sleeve. The other is loose and this one you wrap around the barrel of your lens or preferably the lens hood (loosely) before putting the camera in the sleeve. The other strap which is attached is pulled free and out the front of the sleeve. With the camera inside the sleeve, the front hanging strap is looped through the strap on the lens effectively attaching the sleeve to your lens.

Question 2

Is there no danger of water condensation in humid tropical climates?

Accepted Answer

Really hard to say, I've only used it in the north east U.S. and so far it's been fine. It won't keep humidity out of the cover, obviously the holes for hands stay open, but I mean it won't make a different in terms of how humid it would get inside. There's enough air flow, especially if the bottom zipper is unzip so just the cover rests on top. I will also say this though. I've tried using it once, it was very difficult to use honestly. It's near impossible to adjust a zoom lens manually and hard to see the LCD screen or through the eye hole. I would only buy this product if you just want something affordable to keep light mist or light rain or light snow out.

Question 3

How does this rain cover work when using the camera's viewfinder?

Accepted Answer

It will cover just enough of the camera from the rain.  Therefore, it should not affect the camera's viewfinder in any way. Just make sure it's on the proper way.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

will this fit camera with a 150-600 lens on it?
