One of the best covers out there let's know rain in

Most Durable Rain Cover

By Graham
Rated 5 out of 5

There are lots of rain cover options. This has the most features and is the most durable. That's why I've finally spent the money for the best one. Excellent features. Do not forget to purchase the correct eye piece for your camera. Practice putting it on at home and in the field take the time to put it on your camera before you need it. Feature rich. One puzzle is that even though it's specifically for the 70-200 (I have Canon) the cover seems longer than needed. Also, with the carry strap installed the strap compresses the are over the shutter button. It's not really a problem, just takes some getting used to. Great product. Not the cheapest...

Best Weather Protection

I purchased a few bad weather protection covers for my Nikon D850 using numerous Nikon lens. After receiving them all from B&H and trying them for ease of application and how well they protect, fit and how well I can operate my camera while the cover is on. I came to the conclusion that the TinkTank Hydrophobia Cover was the best by far. Note that I purchased all 3 available sizes and they now are in my F-Stop camera bag full time depending what lens I’m going on the shoot with. These bags aren’t cheap but their well made, fit very well and I can operate my camera without a problem when the cover is attached. What else can I say.

This is actual weather resistance

Bottom line: Hydrophobias do their job. Im a sports pro and if my subjects are out in the rain, so are my cameras. Ive used most of the rain covers including plastic bags, and Hydrophobias are just plain better designed and built. Theyll handle any rain/snow/spray short of an immersion. As an example, last weekend I shot an auto race weekend, and on Sunday we got roughly an inch of rain in two hours. They had to red flag the race for almost half an hour because they only had monsoon tires. Yet when the sun came out, I had the assignment covered, including practically a wall of rooster tails - and the only water on my camera and 70-200 was what got there on my hands. A couple of minor critiques: - the flip-down/flip-up cover for the eyepiece doesnt have a lot of options for securing it in the up position. Theres just a little square of velcro. It works, but its more fiddly than I care for (and also more fiddly than the previous Hydrophobia 70-200 v2 that I have also used). - the included shoulder strap is very effective non-slip material that is also not water absorbent (most regular straps arent) but its also not very wide, so spreads the weight on the shoulder noticeably less well.

Not very good

It looks good but it doesn’t work well at all. I used the older version for years but the new version has a lot of major issues: it falls off (ruining game pics - this kills it), the little cover falls out constantly, it’s really hard to see through the clear plastic part, it doesn’t fit well, the grey cloth won’t stay up blocking the screen. The guys with trash bags fared better. I love thinkthank stuff but not the new hydrophobias.

High quality - Works great!

Just got this for my Nikon D750 with 24-300mm lens and it works great! Everything kept 100% dry in a rainstorm on an outing I just came back from. It's kind of funky to get your camera secured inside the cover, so best to practice a few times at home. Once you do it a few times, easy to secure. Highly recommend!

Market’s best rain cover

The best rain Cover on the market. The design is smart as in how the strap is designed into the cover, not to mention the inclusion of a ratio for the landside. With the openings on both sides all the camera controls are easily accessible. Discover is replacing my older Aquatech rain covers and while the construction quality of the two makes is comparable the design of the hydrophobia is vastly superior.

I'm guessing that the DSLR/70-200 version would be better for a Nikon Z9 plus 70-200/2.8S than the mirrorless version. (which seems to be for a smaller camera). Am I correct?

Sine the Nikon Z9 Mirrorless Camera is a large camera the Think Tank Photo Hydrophobia D 70-200 V3.0 Rain Cover will work the best.

can this size be used with a 24 - 70mm lens?

can this size be used with a 24 - 70mm lens?
Asked by: Richard
It would certainly cover the camera body and lens but you will run into excess material towards the front of the lens which might make it a bit trickier to use.
