Aqua Tech SS-200 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Gray)
The gray SS-200 Sport Shield Rain Cover from Aqua Tech is primarily designed to fit Nikon or Canon digital or film SLR cameras, with lenses up to 10 x 5.0" 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-200 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Grey):
Construction is top notch. If you need to keep it dry this the kit you need, should work at the beach or in the desert against dust just as well. I used mine in very heavy rains and wind and can not see any other product that would tolerate the weather I exposed it too and stow so easily and compact. I'm not overly impressed with the eye piece and the window is too low for my 7d so I can not see the shutter speed and other top line info on the screen. Not a big deal as it's available info in the view finder, just say'n. This why I give it a four not a five, notwithstanding the aforementioned I can not image a better built product is out there for this purpose.

Comments about Aqua Tech SS-200 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Grey):
I shoot outdoor sports that don't stop for rain. This SS-200 allows me to stay and keep shooting where otherwise I would have to pack it in.
It keeps my equipment dry and safe from the elements.
Thanks

Comments about Aqua Tech SS-200 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Grey):
This is the second SS-200 I have bought and in a year the improvement has been amazing. The main complaints I had about my first one (bought in Dec. 2009) were about the neoprene thing around the eye piece. The new SS-200 has a much more durable seeming collar.
The only thing I would ask for now is a little finger pocket in the middle of the lens holder to allow for easy manipulation of zoom lenses that use a ring to zoom as opposed to "trombone style" zoom. For instance the difference between the canon lenses 70-200 2.8 and 100-400 f4-5.6.

Comments about Aqua Tech SS-200 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Grey):
It is the prefect length for use with the canon 70-200mm. Only problem is the zips on the bottom. It takes a little bit of fiddling to get them in the right spot to use with a monopod.

Comments about Aqua Tech SS-200 Sport Shield Rain Cover (Grey):
As a rain cover the quality is very impressive. It seals very well around the lens. I use it on my Canon 70-200 f2.8 IS lens. The cover is best when used with a tripod or monopod as the cover does not lend itself to using the shoulder straps on the camera. Additionally, if using with a zoom lens you will have some difficulty in adjusting your zoom.
