Have a guess.....

Yes
With the forthcoming traditional British weather, I thought it would be best to get something that would not only keep the camera dry but also warm. I've looked online and come across these:
All In One covers
I'm very interested in the double layer reversible variety. Are there any other companies that offer similar?

Cheers

Got to say thanks to you guys for this I have been looking for somthing like this Andy for asking (ya saved me from doing it:naughty:) and John for the link.
 
Not too sure about the keeping warm bit..but I have the ThinkTank Hydraphobia 70-200 and 300-600 rain covers and I have nothing but praise for them.

But having said that,they're substantially more expensive than the ones I saw in your link - plus an eyepiece which are sold seperately is also required.

Only slightly more expensive:D

But they are extremely good pieces of equipment,and take everything into consideration - ie support around the lens inside the cover,a loop to keep the cameras strap tidy whilst you're using it and its own shoulder strap to compensate (70-200).

As I said before,an eye piece is also required to complete the weather sealing - which replaces the original.
But personally I leave them on mine constantly even when not using the covers,as it tends to keep your face away from the camera more.
