Altura Photo Professional Rain Cover for DSLR Cameras
The Professional Rain Cover Protector from Altura Photo delivers maximum protection for your camera and lens with a durable, lightweight, waterproof, nylon material. The Altura Photo rain cover offers protection from serious damage that can be caused by rain, snow, salt spray, dust, dirt and sand. The sleeve is easy to install and remove and offers quick and full access to both camera and lens.
We highly recommend using a dedicated lens hood with your rain cover for improved fit and weather protection performance.
The Altura Photo Rain Cover is compatible with most camera and lens configurations (Max 8″ lens). Smaller cameras with small (pancake) lenses may be less comfortable to use.
Features:
– Made from durable waterproof nylon with a clear back window panel.
– Newly Integrated exterior Velcro strap, and interior anti-slip rubber provides a snug fit to your lens or lens hood.
– Adjustable hand sleeves provide easy access to camera and lens controls.
– The full-length double zipper provides complete coverage for hand-holding or tripod-mounting your camera/lens.
Compatibility:
– e.g. Canon EOS Rebel T6s + EF-S 18-135mm STM; 80D + EF 50mm F/1.8 STM
– e.g. 7D MK II + EF 70-300mm; 5D MK III + EF 24-105mm L; 5D + 70-200 F/2.8
– e.g. Nikon D800 + 24-70 F/2.8, D4, D750, D500 + AF-S 24-120 F/4, D7200, D5500, D3300, D5100
– And similar sized cameras and lenses from other popular manufactures like Sony, Pentax, Sigma, and Tamron..

Not at all bad! UPDATE The product does what it’s supposed to do, and for a reasonable cost. Only one quibble, and since there aren’t any reasonable alternatives, it’s hard to fault the manufacturer: The “window” through which you look to see your camera controls is made of a vinyl, typically called Eisenglass by boaters (since the material is widely used in windows in boat canvas items). It’s prone to drying out, becoming cloudy and/or scratched, cracking (especially in cold weather), and developing more or less permanent creases when folded for too long. So my advice is to make sure the item is folded/stored in such a way that the window is as flat as possible, and keep it from drying out as much as possible. (Relatively inexpensive commercial products for this, including polishes and cleaners, are available from many boating supply stores.)UPDATE: As I starting using this, and as I believe one reviewer noted, the end of one of the cords used to secure the device around the arms or the camera…
Works good with 1D MK IV I’ve added pictures to show the nice fit, even using a 300mm telephoto with Wimberly head. This rain coat rocks!You’ll see various views, even using the back lifted up as I like to get close to the camera for viewing through the viewfinder. There are all of the possibilities available with this rain cover. I did not use the hands through the side access sleeves as that is too clinical unless there were buckets of rain coming down. At some point, you just have to decide for yourself and keeping the camera dry is what this rain coat does very well. The strap inside the lens sleeve seems to be in the way and I’m considering cutting it off as a nuisance.
