Suntouched, Vortex, Ruggard, and Peak all make rain covering that seem to match your description.

No Bob, don't think so. Not seeing the sleek, custom look- all just variations of rain sleeves. Thanks.

I am looking for camera rain protection that I saw yesterday while attending a birding presentation. It was a SLEEK, possibly neoprene, Custom Fitted protection that covered the camera as well as the extended viewer and allowed mounting on a tripod. Not a "one size fits all" rain sleeve- like I had that would not have provided protection in yesterdays driving, all day, downpour. (I didn't even bring my camera out from under my rain poncho). His camera was covered to the point where I couldn't see which camera/which lens he was using. And there was another attendee that had the same protection.

I googled it but only found variations of rain sleeves. Anyone have any ideas?

You may be thinking- why didn't you ask him what he was using and where he got it yesterday?? I intended to but then circumstances got in the way.

I have the full frame, weather resistant 70-300 mm f4-5.6 P lens. It has manual override- just need to turn the focus ring while depressing the shutter half way. I am using it on the Nikon d7500. It's quick to focus, quiet, relatively light weight- 26 oz and takes a 67 mm filter. It's sharp at all focal lengths, beautiful bokeh wide open, good VR- gotten many hand held, sharp images. It feels solid, not cheap. I have been very happy with this lens. I have used it out in the elements. Is it better than all the other 70-300 mm Nikon lenses- I have no means of hands on comparison. It is the priciest of the 70-300 mm- why? who knows! I plan to purchase the 300 mm f4 P lens in the future. It is currently the lightest 300 mm lens available. But not until I sell some other things :)

Oh I googled it and found Magee Marsh off Hwy 2 in Ohio but not Maggie Marsh. You are right- it is east of Oregon. Lucky you :)

Beautifully done. Did you get these all in one day? I haven't seen that many different birds in the last 2 years!! Where is Maggie Marsh?

Hunting dogs are often prey oriented- perhaps he looked at your dog as prey. I have a small hunting dog and he can be very intense and single minded.
Or maybe he just wanted to play.
Good looking dog and nice image.

There is a great park in Gilbert with lots of birds- can't think of the name of it but you can google it.
Enjoy your mild winter in Mesa!

The Desert Museum is a great place to spend the day! Rillito Park in Tucson is a known place for them as well as well as other birds.

Therein lies the rub with Sony (for me). The 55-210 mm lens was about the best you could do without using an adapter. I believe you can pick up a 70-300 mm third party lens from Sigma now but I don't know if that lens is oversized for the small a6000.

Beautiful image- beautiful hawk.
I have looked for these hawks but haven't gotten one yet. I live about 85 miles S of Tucson and the Red Tails are the most common. There is an area in Tucson that is known for them.

Marvelous photo; such a land and sea-scape! It's cropped perfectly. Any changes I examined were for the worse.


I did both horizontal and vertical views as well as exposure bracketing so that I could pick and choose afterwards. This one was a vertical view with 1+ exposure. This was the one I liked best too. Thank You!
