The Candom

Phillips Plastic camera bag gave us all a laugh, but an hour later we all wished we had one. We nicknamed it the "Candom" a Condom for Canon's as opposed to co#@'s. :-)

That is *so* funny. Looks like he was over optimistic getting the XXL. Only the sort of advice a very close friend can give.

Check out the link fellow shootershttp://optechusa.com click on rain covers. I use the rain sleeve while doing sports they cost $10.00 for a pair. You retain complete control of the camera inside the sleeve and you are looking through your viewfinder not several folds of plastic. I also went one step further and created a lens hood extention out of clear sheet of plastic to help keep the rain off the lens. Disclaimer, neither myself or anyone in my circle of friends is employed by the Op/Tech Company. I admire your collective perseverance the idea of finding a cosy pub must have been compelling!:)

Oh how you all laughed - but I got many an admiring glance out on the streets I can tell you - and it wasn't even my biggest lens ;o)
Oh - and it can do Nikon/Pentax/Oly/etc too - just need to make it a camdom :o))
