Yes
Dunno if this should be in here or the general one.
But what you do when it rains? do you still go out with your camera? whats good to photograph when the weather is rubbish? or do you not bother
 
Yes get out in it, I don't worry about a little water on my canera, more places to find cover in a city I know, but being someone who workes outside all day everyday I do find it rains in burst more than continuously, so you can just hide it under a coat for half an hour.
The clouds have been fab recently down here, and the rain adds to the mood etc ... I've been trying for a year to get a cracking shot of some person running out of the rain with a news paper or suchlike as cover. ..Oh and the pedestrian splashed by car shot, dying to get that one. :naughty: :D
 
Take pics of people getting wet, or not as this pic shows.:D

Unless you have a weather resistant camera/lens, getting the camera/lens wet can lead to problems if the water gets into the electronics. Best not to get the camera (or lens) wet.

You can still shoot in the rain and I've used a plastic bag to cover the lens & camera with a couple of holes so you can see the screen and can handle the buttons but I prefer to keep my camera dry. You can also buy dedicated covers that do this job.

I've used a weather resistant 1 series with a weather resistant lens and still tended to keep the camera/lens covered. Most pro's do this too - its just good practice.
 
Sing in it????????? :shrug:
 
Stay inside with me feet up drinking a can of Guinness and eating steak flavoured McCoys watching the baby wreck my living room and the fiance moan that I dont do anything.
 
Go on the internet and book a flight abroad after checking the weather :wave:
 
I got nice weather when I moved house! :D
