The Aqua Tech SS-ZOOM Sport Shield Rain Cover (Navy) is primarily designed to fit Nikon or Canon digital or film SLR cameras, with lenses up to 5.0 x 5.0" attached.

It is made with YKK weatherproof zippers for ease of application and removal. The rain cover provides a watertight seal around lens front. The one-piece design provides complete enclosure and moisture protection for both the camera body and lens with a "glove-like" fit. It is designed with a waterproof sleeve to access and operate the camera controls safely and easily.
There are draw strings on hand access and tripod sleeve for protection when not in use. It has waterproof view windows to monitor camera functions. The eyepiece cover flap protects the viewfinder when not in use.
Note! Requires an eyepiece to hold cover to camera and maintain waterproofing.
- Sport Shield rain covers are designed to protect professional cameras and lenses from adverse weather conditions such as wind, rain, salt, air and sand. They 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. 1
- The Multi Layer Barrier Fabric System "sandwiches" the textile. The outside face is 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. 2

Comments about AquaTech SS-ZOOM Sport Shield Rain Cover (Navy):
I have the same features for my 70-200, and 400 2.8 lens covers, and don't really use them...too much flipping/flopping and trying to see thru plastic windows that with droplets covering them that don't work as intended...the waterproof-ability is special on the aforementioned, but the windows aren't, and on at least one of my two, the stretch membrane for the eyepiece tends to fray...I'm giving it a 3, cause it's essentially a good piece of gear, but pricey for what it really turns out to be...I returned it for the SS Sport, a basic one with fewer ply, but none of the stuff that doesn't work, and a lot more inexpensive...stay tuned...

Comments about AquaTech SS-ZOOM Sport Shield Rain Cover (Navy):
One of the assignments I regularily have is to take pictures of the winning dogs at dog shows. Since dog show go on rain or shine, it's essential to have equipment to protect my gear.
We've recently had a rainy spell and I have had a chance to test out my new rain cover and it works great. It's easy to put on my camera (Nikon D200 and D700), it fits snugly and keeps everything dry the way it's designed to. I especially like the side access so the hand I'm using to hold the camera stays dry too.
The only thing I did like was that I needed to cut the top of the cover so that I could mount my flash.
