Comments about Kata RC-14 Compact Rain Cover:
This rain cover works perfectly for the panasonic dvx and hvx cameras (similar in design). The cover extends very low, so your tripod head won't get wet either. There are straps throughout the cover so you get a tight seal around your lens and your eye piece. It is spacious enough that your viewfinder can remain open throughout your shoot.

The rain cover has velcro on the top and bottom. Accessories can be added above, extending the height, and your wrist can be enclosed within while holding the camera from below.

Comments about Kata RC-14 Compact Rain Cover:
I actually used it with the Panasonic AF100 camera, Although it says made for Sony, it actually works well with various other camera, it feels secure and kept my camera free of rain, dew and blowing sand. I would recommend this rain cover to anyone with a 4-7 lb camera

Comments about Kata RC-14 Compact Rain Cover:
I used the cover to shoot a story about a snow storm... It is really good. You just have to be, of course, paying attention to the lens, because the rest will be very well protected.
The great thing about it is that it really protects the camera.
The only thing that I thought would be better is the fact that, at least for my camera HMC150, working with the LCD under the cover is very difficult... You can't rely because of the plastic. However, I used the viewfinder and made really great shots.
I really recommend this cover.

Love the lightness of the Kata. Well designed, and does what it claims to do. I plan on taking it to the windswept plains of eastern Turkey, during the rain and flood season. Recommended!
