This is awesome , I wish theer was th eoption of ordering it without the top flaps which you would need in case you decide to use a flash with it. Those flaps are pesky and if you wanna see the top part of the camera to check the settings, you need to undo the velcro and bring them flaps down and ut of the way. If you wanna see the lcd you need to bring them back up. This could be easily and simply fixed by being able to fold them onto themselves which it would make them a lot shorter and less in the way. Other than that the cover is great. The eyepiece holds the clear part of the rain cover in place and lined up with the viewfinder, without that it would be a mess, I looked around and no other brand, ie Portabrace etc, have the eyepiece like Aquatechs. Imagine how hard it would be to focus without it!

Rain cover provided excellent protection during most rain and snow conditions. A little difficult a times to apply however in a hurry but that is a minor point. I would not leave home without it. It would be nice to see some sort of optically clear vinyl or plastic lens cover incorporated to fully protect and seal the lens that could be wiped clean without risk of damaging lenses or filters. This would significantly increase the lens elements protection from wind driven freezing rain, snow or sand and dust. I would suggest a separate sleeve with an optically clear plastic/glass lens that could be slipped on and off over the lens barrel as needed with elastic or velcro straps to fasten it in place.

• Sport Shields are designed to protect professional Cameras and Lenses from adverse weather conditions such as wind, rain, salt air and sand. They are designed to accommodate and protect most SLR film and Digital Cameras.
• Sport Shield Rain covers are manufactured using a versatile, high performance and multi-layer barrier fabric system. This design seals the fabric with a series of coatings or layers that prevent driving rain, water, snow or dust from entering the fabric.
• The Multi Layer Barrier Fabric System sandwiches the textile. The outside faceis treated with a TEFLON® water repellant finish preventing surface absorption of water, dirt, dust and oil. The inside surface is coated with THREE successive layers of a specially engineered formula which combine to create a tough, durable and permanent waterproof system.
• Independent textile testing indicates an exceptionally high hydrostatic head averaging 10,000+mm (160kpa). It requires more than 10 meters of vertical water pressure directly on this fabric before any penetration could occur. The special coating will stay waterproof for the life of the garment.
• Tests conducted show an average breathability of 8,000 grams of water vapor per square meter of fabric per day. For comparison, leading waterproof fabrics rate between 3,000 and 5,000 grams per square meter per day.
