Could be a good product for smaller lenses
on May 19, 2021
Posted by: Anonymous
Unfortunately I will be returning this product. It simply does not fit my Tamron 150-600mm with the D7500 attached. Very tight, not easy to work with in the field and does not actually fit once past 400mm.
I think it's a fine product for smaller lenses or a smaller prime but does not work with my needs.

Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased the small for my Nilon Z6 and initially thought perhaps a medium would have been better, although, afternoon getting it on my camera, realized it was perfect. I will be back soon for that medium for my DSLR. Excellent product!

This thing works so well.

Got stuck in a rain storm and thought for sure I was going to be replacing thousands of dollars worth of gear, slapped this bad boy on my camera and came out just fine. Could not be more thankful!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great but v2 needs to be better

I bought the small based on the sizing chart for a Sony A1 mirrorless camera. It's very, very tight with a 24-70 2.8 and almost impossible to use with a 7--200 2.8. Honestly, v2 needs to have an updated correct sizing chart, and some kind of clear viewing panel so you can view the back of your cameras LCD panel. That being said I did put this over when I was shooting in a downpour and it kept my camera dry. Also, the shell itself dries extremally fast and folds into itself which is extremely convenient. I would definitely wait for a v2 before picking up a shell.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not for small mirrorless cameras

The small size is recommended for mirrorless cameras, but unless you have a very large lens, there is far too much fabric for this to be usable.
Otherwise, great product, quality, I could see how this would be a great piece of gear.

Great to have this in the winter

I bought this to protect my camera under the snow. That works great but that would be greater if there is a hole or a way to look at the view finder while still covering the screen.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Did Well In a Diverse Climate
on April 10, 2020
Posted by: Nick
I bought this shell before a trip to Iceland. I choose the large size for a Nikon D5100 with a Sigma superzoom lens. While the cover was too big for the equipment, I actually preferred this. The extra space allowed my hand to be inside the cover operating the controls while it poured rain in windy conditions. I have a shoulder strap that screws into the bottom of the camera body so it was in a good position for hiking in rain. My only complaint is the cover would slip off the end of the lens and crop into the corners of my shot. If I forgot to lock the lens prior to installing the cover, I would have to find shelter to take it off and try again.

Not Disappointed

I bought the Small shell for my Olympus OMD-EM1 mirrorless. Was quite concern about choosing the right size. Perhaps if PD adds in dimension numbers, max L x W x H, would help more. Love the material. Fortunate even with the 75x300 lens the Shell provides a good fit. Have not taken it out yet due to the vivid-19 situation, but I go on cruises couple of times a year. Have ran into wet weather situations as well as with moisture mist from water fall (Iguazu Falls). This Shell will come into use. Takes some patience to put it on/off. But not complaining.
