Hi everyone, thanks for any info you can offer!

Are speedlights rainproof - i have photix mitros +.

Tried looking on the internet but not found anything specific to my units.

Thanks again!
 
…but not found anything…


… because no one can make that claim… too high risks
given the high voltage capacity when in use.
 
I dropped one in a stream once, didn't risk trying it immediately but it was fine after drying out. As Phil says, sandwich bags are the thing
 
If a speedlight is weather-proof (or any other product for that matter) the manufacturer will make it pretty clear, eg Canon 600EX-RT. An indicator that the manufacturer has at least thought about it is some kind of rubber shroud/seal around the foot, and a little rubber gasket around the battery cover, but that could easily be just tokenism (ie marketing ;)). Food bags are good :thumbs:
