Any suggestions. The camera doesn't have to remain usable with the cover on just protected from the rain whilst I run back to the car. Thanks in advance.

I bought the one made by Pelican and used it this week for the first time. I'm also now looking for something else. Stormjacket looks nice enough.

I have the same rain cover as Jon plus the sleeve for the longer lenses but if all you need is protection from the rain for your camera gear without the need for functionality, then all you need to do is keep a plastic garbage bag or two in your camera bag or in one of your pockets. I always keep at least two tall garbage bags in my bag and photo vest just in case.
