Comments about Kata Kata GDC Series E-702 Elements Cover, Rain & Snow Protection for Digital and Film SLR Cameras.:

Tested this product in Borneo Malaysia in heavy rain and it really kept the camera and lens dry. Only minor thing is that in HEAVY rain conditions where the humid level is also high it collects some moisture that makes to look at the viewfinder a bit difficult. But those weather conditions are quite rear.

Comments about Kata Kata GDC Series E-702 Elements Cover, Rain & Snow Protection for Digital and Film SLR Cameras.:

I've used it only once in a drizzle and it gave me confidence to shoot. It's big enough to hold lots of gear with plenty of room for my hands. It takes a little bit of care to wrap the velcro around the long lens to hold it securely while leaving the ability to zoom, but once you get the knack it's not so bad.

Comments about Kata Kata GDC Series E-702 Elements Cover, Rain & Snow Protection for Digital and Film SLR Cameras.:

I intended to use this with a 16-85 zoom lens but found that the large plastic/velcro lens wrap made access to the lens controls (zoom etc.) pretty much impossible. If I was using a 70-300 or larger, this would be a great choice. The price is right and it offers great access to the camera for both hands. If you aren't zooming, this is a great option.

Comments about Kata Kata GDC Series E-702 Elements Cover, Rain & Snow Protection for Digital and Film SLR Cameras.:

I had to shoot several football games in drizzling rain and the Kata cover kept my equipment from getting wet and it did not impede my ability to shoot pictures.

Does not come with telephoto sleeve.
By jbowersonlineVerified Reviewer from Very wet Far Northern California on 12/21/2006

Comments about Kata Kata GDC Series E-702 Elements Cover, Rain & Snow Protection for Digital and Film SLR Cameras.:

Just a quick note: The picture used currently is the E-702 with E-704 attachment. The E-702 only covers the camera, and a short lens.

Haven't used the cover in rain yet, will update when I do.
