Hi I was looking for an optech rain sleeve and came across this website with free postage
.http://www.jackthehat.co.uk/index.php

Most other websites selling those sleeves charge about £5 p& p bringing your purchase to double.

Has anyone heard of them or even bought from them ?
Thanks
 
I can't comment on JTH but I have a pair of the sleeves and have used them both. They are not designed as a long term solution, more a quick fix, but I'm sure they'll last me a while. I've actually only used them twice in two years. They are a bit fiddly and the fit around some lens hoods can be tricky (I think a rubber band or two would be better than the draw string), but they do at least keep the rain off your gear.

For a fiver the pair I'll give them a thumbs up, but if you want rain protection on a regular basis I think you would be better off going a little more up market.

Here's an eBay search that may get you a few extra results - http://photography.shop.ebay.co.uk/...5&LH_PrefLoc=1&_odkw=rain*+camera&_osacat=625

I recently bought the the Lumiquest Promax system from there.....

I emailed a question about postage and gave my mobile number and the chap sent me a few txt's to let me know what was happening....

My experience was FAB !

Cheers

I've dealt with them a few times, very helpful, only downside is I believe everything is sent second class so not the quickest but always worth the wait.
 
Thanks lads for that :thumbs: Just looking at the weather this morning ,have decided to buy from them
p.s do they do one big enough for me to cycle to work :lol:
