Keeping cameras waterproofed from rain
When you are out taking pictures you do not want to be restricted by rain. This is just a cheap solution to keeping your camera dry and working.
This is really aimed at cameras without a fixed lens as a camera of that type should ideally be watertight already. All cameras have a degree of water resistance but it is always better to be safe than sorry. Water damage will almost never be covered under the warantee of a general purpose camera.
If you just get a pack of ziplock freezer bags (size depends on camera type, flash etc). Cut the bottom of the bag open, put the camera inside and secure the end of the lens gently with the ziplock. This gives you a decent budget water shield for only a couple of pounds and a few seconds of your time.
Always be careful with the lens on your camera as it is a delicate piece of the camera.
