Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I would like the option to see and control the C300mkiii LCD screen while under the rain cover. Can this model do that? It seems possible in the photos of the Extra-Long model.

A: No. Please review the following item that is designed and made for your unit. PortaBrace RS-C3500 Rain Slicker for Canon C100/C300/C500 Camera BH #PORSC300 • MFR #RS-C3500 https://bhpho.to/3qtS79P

Q: 2. Can the LCD be used when the cover is on?

A: No, this is designed so that the viewfinder is used; not the LCD.

Q: 3. The bottom opens for a mono or tripod connection?

A: Yes, The PortaBrace Compact HD Rain Slicker for Panasonic HC-X2000 Camera will allow you to connect the camera to a tripod with the cover on camera.

Q: 4. What is its maximum length (camera + lens)? It's not listed in Overview or Specs.

A: The PortaBrace RS-C70 DSLR Rain Slicker for Canon EOS C70 will cover lenses up to 8" in length. You will be able to work with longer lenses though, but part of the lens would not be covered by the Portabrace rain slicker.

Q: 5. Looks like the handle and mike are on the camera with the rain slicker? I take it you can't fit a wind sock over the mike in the rain slicker?

A: Yes, The PortaBrace Compact HD Rain Slicker for Panasonic HC-X2000 Camera will cover the cameras handle and mic. You should not need wind protection with the rain cover on camera. But a wind muff or foam mic cover would fit.

Q: 6. will this fit a sony hvr-v1u?

A: This rain slicker is specific to the Sony PXW-X70, I would instead opt for the B&H # POQSM4. This rain cover will fit a vast array of cameras including the Sony V1U.

Q: 7. Can this be used with accessories/modifications such as the Blackmagic SSD deck attached to the rear or XLR cords/receivers mounted to those dual plugs on the top/rear? Thanks!

A: This rain jacket will accommodate devices plugged into the audio XLR ports of the BM Ursa Mini. WRT the SSD deck it will get a bit snug if it is piggy-backed behind a v-lock battery - however with a little ingenuity a flap extension could easily be fabricated out of similar fabric and Velcro .

Q: 8. Does this fit the expansion unit with a v-mount battery attached?

A: There is some play on the rear portion that should allow for ample room, but we have not tested this application and cannot physically verify it at this time, as this is a special order item that ships directly from the manufacturer. We recommend contacting the manufacturer directly for confirmation.

Q: 9. does this fit the c300 mk iii as well?

A: no it will not fit the c300Miii the bodies are different

Q: 10. Can LCD screen be flipped out under the rain protection of slicker & seen for following continuous sports action on a tripod?

A: No, the PortaBrace Quick Rain Slicker for Canon XA60, XA65, XA70 & XA75 Camcorder (BH #POQRSXA60) does not have an opening for the LCD.

[Sony VENICE] Without instructions I was able to put it on with ease. I was working the NYC Bhangra Holi Hai Festival and it kept my camera spotless! Definitely worth every dollar. 5

[1.65 lb] Excellent cover build quality is second to none. It is a bit of a mission to get the cover on the camera so be aware you won't be able to quickly chuck it on your FS5 if it starts to rain all of a sudden like it does over here in Auckland. Never the less minor issue excellent product highly recommend, have one for my URSA mini 4.6k. 5

[1.65 lb] I needed a waterproof cover for my Sony FS5. The pictures do not do it justice. It fits very well - a little oversize if anything. But the number of opening surprised me. There is a hook and loop opening on top that allows you to grab the top handle which is useful if you want to leave the Rain Slicker on before/after the rain. There is a zipper that gives access to microphone attachment. A hook and loop opening is available on the grip side of the camera, yet sheds the water with or without your hand on the grip and allow easy access to the grip controls. The other side has two clear plastic windows that afford a view of the control side of the camera and the LCD Screen. Hook and Loop allow you to tent the opening for the LCD screen to keep water out yet provide a clear view. Finally there is a h&l opening on the back to allow access to the battery and connectors (SCI, HDMI, etc) on the back. There is even a flap of material that allows a microphone to be open in the front yet protected from rain. This flap doesn't extend past the lens so you may have to move a shotgun mic back. The only negative I've found is the elastic opening for the view finder doesn't grip the eyepiece very well. If you have the large eyecup mounted it will hold everything in place but without the eyecup the cover will not keep the eyepiece held in place and you have to make an effort every time you want to look thru the view finder - but it does keep it dry that way. All of the opening are designed in such a way as to shed the water around the openings. I haven't tried it in blowing rain but I bet that you could adjust the opening for a tighter fit. The material is a heavy duty waterproof canvas that isn't going to tear or wear with normal usage. 5

[Sony VENICE] I did the mistake to buy the Camrade version (because a friend loved his cover for the FS700), but I had to return it because the cover was terribly bad designed. The whole thing was made of velcros that left tiny holes around the camera, the LCD back of the LCD screen was not covered, the back was to tight to put a BP-U90 battery and there's no space at the top to put a wireless receiver. I was extremely disappointed (it's the first time I had to return a B&H order) Then i emailed Porta Brace asking if their cover would fit a BP-U90 battery and they replied to be in 10 minutes assuring it would. After playing with cover I can say that it's very well designed, my camera feels much more protected then with the camerade version. If you know how well your FS5 you shouldn't have any problems operating with the cover on. There's a lot of space if you have accessories on your camera and most importantly : The LCD screen is 100% protected. Great product! 5
