Peak DesignShell Camera Rain Cover, Small, Weatherproof Rain Cover for DSLR Camera, Stretchy Neoprene Fabric with Waterproof Membrane, Works with Capture Clip & Peak Design Straps, Protects from Dust

I received the Peak Designs cover for my camera and tossed it in my pack despite the sun shining on the way out the door for a hike. I was glad I did! As the day progressed and my hike grew longer, it started raining. Slipping the (size small) cover on my Sony a6500 with a Sony 18-105mm was easy and it fit very well with just a slight overhang in the front protecting the front edge of the lens. Functionally, this is a true cover which does not provide a lot of side access ports for your hands, but after reading other comments on those same sock-like covers I felt the Peak Designs would be better constructed and still provide sufficient access. I still feel that way. The way the cover is constructed it leads you to want another Peak Designs innovation--that being their standard connections for straps--those same connections fit easily through the small access holes on the top/sides of the cover. It is easy to mix and match straps and the cover with little effort, giving great flexibility in all shooting situations.Peak Designs products may cost more... but I am finding them well constructed, durable, comfortable, and more essential than I thought they might be.Thanks!

Very well made and excellent materials. Keep in mind though that it is definitely best used with the peak design capture clip or another bottom-mount accessory. It does have pass throughs for a strap or PD anchors, but they are tricky to set up. The medium was a tiny bit large for my Nikon Z6ii w/ the 24-70 F4, but it gives me room for a larger lens. Definitely keeps the rain off, but you do need to pull it up to access the viewfinder/camera controls which then exposes them to rain. Worked well for me though!

Recently I took a trip to the UK visiting London and Dublin among other places. I wanted to take my sony alpha 6000 mirrorless camera along to take pictures and video of my vacation. But unfortunately my camera is not weather sealed, and considering the reputation for the UK having very wet weather I was concerned a bit. Luckily I previously purchase a peak design camera capture system, so I kinda knew already about this little gem. With the system it lets you cover the camera and lens while it hangs on your back pack strap. It really a great solution actually. I used it and never once felt that the camera was in danger of getting wet. The quality is really nice and the material didn't seem to absorb water, which was great. It kind of reminded me of the material used in a wet suit but a little bit more sturdy. I wouldn't recommend using it in a really heavy storm though. Just use this if you happen to be in an unexpected weather situation where a weather proof backpack is not available. It's also nice to have on if you dont want your camera getting all dinged or scratched up from the occasion bump while its hanging on the outside on a strap or something. Overall, I was very happy with the purchase. I just which it was maybe 5-10 dollars cheaper.

Meh, I didn't really like it and removed it after a week. My problem was getting the proper clearance for the top camera controls. The cover should slide higher over the straps but it's just a couple inches until your hung up on the wide portion of the strap, if I'm explaining it correctly. This makes access to the front portion of the top controls very difficult.The rain protection is there, it fits the A7 rather well with a larger zoom lens. Quality of the material is good as well.

My Camera; 2021 Sony A6400, 18-135mm telephoto lens.Peak Design Cover: size SmallPro:1-good materials, 2-quality construction, 3-stretchable, cinches tight where needs to be.Great as ONLY a water/rain resistant & dust cover, protects camera from various bumps if Capture Clip on belt and/or hip. Bulky cover but does the job.Cons:1-Poor fit to camera, fit area from lens to the camera main body is askew, not straight. See image of how front cover fits on lens but camera is off to the side in the back portion of the cover. Adds a crumpled appearance and loose, gap fitting.2-Bulk of material bunches up underneath, interferes with easily clipping into the Peak Design Capture, but working material down tight you can then clip camera-shell case into the Capture Clip.3- as much as I tried, the fitting around front of lens near shell lens hood is very loose. Can work it's way forward over the lens or partially blocking lens view. Hard to shoot an image if need to do do quickly.4-cannot operate manual zoom on 18-135mm lens with this cover installed. Probably better for fixed prime lens.5-By the time you lift off rear portion of camera cover (there is no clear panel on back of cover), turn on camera etc, the shot/picture opportunity often is missed.6-Not easy to fit Capture strap clips thru the cover to attach Leash Camera strap. Due to back cover not squarely aligned with camera body being askew to front of lens location.Not what I expected design & function wise from Peak Design company for this product. Keeping it just as a dust/rain cover, extra outside camera protection when carrying on my Capture Clip.Expensive $$ for just a dust cover.....but SOME protection is better than none.
