Foul Weather Shooting Cover?

I like the kata one better. I would rather have it open on the bottom with the windows then open in the back. Would make me a little more nervous.

(sorry, couldn't resist...) :hail:


If stationary in the sticks, I would use a shooting blind....in an urban setting, I would either stay in my truck, or use one of the covers, both look promising....however the one from storm jacket says that it is for for short term use, so I would suspect it is more water resistant than waterproof.

Here is something else to consider (serious this time...):

Depends if you are after something to buy or make...

You can home make some quite decent foul weather covers, with some "unusual" items.

 

Saw this on another forum: Guy wanted wildlife blind. Went to Walmart and bought a small free-standing tent (about $20) with door on one side and windows on other three. Cut out windows for shooting. Later cut out floor so hecould move the blind without leaving it.

an umbrella? and also a heavy ziplock bag rigged in the right way will do wonders depending on the legnth of your lens

 

just strap the umbrella to your tripod

i usually grab some ziploc bags and a roll of duct tape and make my own camera condom, keep the cost minimal and effectiveness 100%
