The navy SS-600 Sport Shield Rain Cover from Aqua Tech is primarily designed to fit Nikon or Canon digital or film SLR cameras, with lenses up to 23 x 8.0" attached. It is made of high-quality, 3-ply, waterproof, breathable fabric, fully tape seam sealed with waterproof silicone sealing around the view windows. 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 Aqua Tech SS-600 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Navy):
Great for rain or those misty/foggy days when you want to keep your camera dry! Can't live without it! I am a sports photographer and I use it for shooting indoor swimming events as well so that I can get water-level shots!

Comments about Aqua Tech SS-600 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Navy):
If you spent 4-8K for a lens then it is worth the investment to protect it and this rain cover is worth the money. I bought this for my Canon 400 2.8 lens to shoot a NCAA football game in the rain. It's construction is extremely durable and once you get the hang of it is fairly simple to put on.
If you have a zoom type lens then this could cause some difficulty in running the zoom but for a fixed lens it worked well. Worked best when I had the lens attached to my monopod. Don't forget to get the correct eye piece, I recommend visiting the manufacturers web page to get the updated list of eye pieces for your camera.

As a Professional Sports Photographer whose assignments demand consistent performance in all types of whether the Aqua Tech Sport Shields are a must have accessory. Over the years I have used many different “Camera Rain Coats” but none compare with the unequaled quality and performance that this product offers. Aqua Tech Sport Shields are a small price to pay for the outstanding protection they offer the equipment that earns me a living. Thank you Aqua Tech.

Comments about Aqua Tech SS-600 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Navy):
I recently purchased the Aqua Tech Sports Shield for use with my Canon 400mm f/2.8 lens. I used it for the first time last weekend shooting the Kentucky Oaks and Derby and the Aqua Tech withstood even the heaviest of downpours. I would definitely recommend this product for anyone looking for weather protection for their long glass. Also fits 600mm lenses. Based on this product, I will be purchasing the smaller zoom version for wide angle glass soon.
