Not just for rain!
on September 10, 2019
Posted by: Anonymous
I purchased the Shell in medium for my Nikon D600 with a 24mm prime lens to take on a three-day riding trip in the Sierra Nevada. I could not have chosen a better way to protect my camera, which I had attached to the Slide strap and clipped to my belt with the Pro Pad/Capture clip. I have gotten more dust on my camera trying to take photos in my back yard than I did on this trip, which was very dusty at times. It worked great! I was able to get on and off the horse without any problems and always had the camera handy. Highly recommend!

Verified Purchase:Yes
The lack of a hole for the lens viewer makes this worthless. When you try to move the cover up to see through the views it bunches and is not usable. I am deeply disappointed in this product. This is the first major fail I have seen in a Peak Design.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Fantastic camera cover
on September 26, 2019
Posted by: S. Selvidge
I take my cameras backcountry backpacking and I can't let the weather stop me from being ready for a good photo. This cover, combined with the Capture Clip on my backpack, made 5 days in Glacier National Park in Sept 2019 with tons of rain a total non-issue. I do wish there was a size in between the small and the medium to make using the camera easier while keeping the cover on in the rain. On a Fuji X-T2/3 it fits nice and tight... but its so perfect I found shooting with it on being challenging. However, I didn't worry about moisture on the camera at any time except in the heaviest soaking rain which only last a short while.
Having the ability to photograph the changing weather in the mountains while keeping the gear dry was fantastic.

Perfect Travel Cover for your camera

This product is a perfect partner if you are looking to protect your camera / lenses from scratches if you don't have a dedicated camera compartment in your bag. The shell covers the camera perfectly and now I can place it my backpack with other items without worrying about scratches on the body of camera and lenses.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What a product!
on January 4, 2019

While out and about I'd often hide my camera in my jacket. In the colder temps of an Icelandic winter this became a problem - with every unzip of my jacket to capture moments of our vacation - I'd invite wind, rain, and sometimes snow into my jacket, onto my camera, and I'd immediately regret it. By the time our trip was over and we were home in VT i had this waiting for me at my doorstep. Love this product! Super easy to get on and off my Nikon D7100 with a 50mm prime lens or my 70-200mm. I'm often out in all weather conditions with my camera so having something that keeps it safe is key. This shell was it! It's very well made construction wise. Love the look and feel of the material in hand as well!

Small Shell

Not the perfect waterproof shell. But the quality of the product is amazing. Usually sits in the camera cube holding my backup camera nowadays.

Protégez contre la pluie, la poussière, la neige et des rayures
on February 14, 2018
Posted by: Alex B.
Protégez votre boîtier contre la pluie, la poussière, la neige et des rayures qu'il soit entre vos mains, sur le trépied, sur ou même dans votre sac. Un design en forme de coquille St Jacques, un tissu extensible, très léger, avec une membrane imperméable à l'eau pour garder votre caméra en sécurité. Même si vous changez souvent d'objectifs ou utilisez différents boîtiers, et utilisez des “grips batteries“. Vous pouvez l'utiliser avec n'importe quelle courroie ou le Capture clip.

Ski Mountaineering
on March 29, 2018
Posted by: Paul K.
I used the small shell with Olympus OMD EM1 mk ii and 14-40 f2.8 Pro lens for 10 days of ski mountaineering - attached to rucksack strap with Capture 3. The system worked really well once I got used to it. I removed the PD hand strap as it just got in the way and tethered to camera to my rucksack with some 2mm dyneema and a carabiner to minimise risk of loss in some silly steep places. I did find using the zoom a bit fiddly but otherwise it was great.
