    weather protection for E-520?

    Does anyone know of a product like Camera Armor or equivalent for the E-520? I find it for lots of different makes/models but, in the Olympus line, for only the E-410.

    I have searched around at different places and haven't seen any. So I guess not, yet anyway. The 520 is still new to the market. My guess would be you will see it out soon.

    I don't know about camera armor, but for weather protection I carry a shower cap and a rubber band. Put the shower cap around the camera with the lens sticking out, rubber band it around the lens. It's down and dirty, but it works pretty well. Since the mid grade lenses are weather sealed I don't worry about them.

    Or, buy an E3...it's completely weather sealed. Now if silly olympus would just make some weather sealed flashes.
