Weather proof/rain cover for 5D Mk 3

[Old Stu]

Can anyone recommend a rain cover for my 5D Mk3 please. I have a got a cheap 'Fulat' one which came from ebay but the plastic is a bit stiff. I don't want to risk the camera in the rain. I would be using a Canon 70-200 2.8 or my 24-105 lens.

Storm Jacket. just got one really good. It's got a hole for tripod/monopod. Different sizes to fit different size lens, mine for a 300mm was £45ish.

I got one of these and it's excellent.

Think Tank Hydrophobia 70-200mm are excellent IMHO.

Expensive and you need to factor in an eyepiece into the cost and they are about £25 but they are made to last!

Optech Rain Sleves do the job for me.

Or - pick up an old rain jacket from a charity shop, preferably one with elastic wrists and cut the sleeve off. I used one for three seasons before I was bought the 'storm jacket' for my birthday.
