Q: 1. the guy in the video acted like he was using the viewfinder, but you can't see out of the viewfinder lol. Right?

A: Yes, it is possible to use the viewfinder or LCD screen when using the LensCoat RainCoat Small Sleeve. The last few images on LensCoat's website for this item shows the rear view of the item, both open, exposing the full rear of the camera, and closed, only exposing the camera's eyepiece. The back may be used either open or closed.

Q: 2. Which size would work best for the Sony a6700 plus the Sony 70-350mm lens?

A: The LensCoat RainCoat Small Sleeve (Black) is the correct size for the Sony a6700 Mirrorless Camera with the Sony E 70-350mm f/4.5-6.3 G OSS Lens attached.

Q: 3. So you can really get your left hand in this to zoom while shooting?

A: The bottom of this sleeve is held together with Velcro. You can open it up in a light drizzle to get your hand inside. I have a 150-600mm zoom which I'll zoom to 600mm before I put the rain sleeve on the lens. This lens will be on a tripod while I wait for a moose to wade into the far end of a pond. This can take hours to happen. The rear of the sleeve can be cinched around the eyepiece or left open to access camera controls and LCD screen. Use a lens hood and UV filter to help protect the front element. Close everything up in a downpour and take advantage of the generous fit to zoom the lens through the fabric in small increments. I'll personally simply wait out a downpour while my equipment is protected. Then when it lets up, I'll be ready to shoot again instead of having to break everything out of my backpack and set it up all over again.

Q: 4. Will this cover a D500 with 200-500 lens on Wimberley gimbal head?

A: No, the LensCoat RainCoat Large Sleeve rain protector will cover the Nikon D500 with the Nikon 200-500mm lens, but not if it is mounted on a Wimberley gimbal head. A better rain protector would be the Vortex Media Pro SLR Storm Jacket Camera Cover, X-large: https://bhpho.to/2Y31JYh

Q: 5. Will this work with D750 and Sigma 150-600 lens?

Q: 6. With a 100-400 zoom, what problems might I run into? Do you focus and zoom from the top outside the cinched up rain sleeve?

Q: 7. Will this be too big a rain cover for a 80D Canon plus the new 100-400L ll? Would the medium size be better (then I could use it with smaller lenses)? With either LensCoat sleeve, will focusing (through the velcro) be a frustrating experience?

A: Also, as long as you're not wearing gloves or sleeves made out something that the Velcro could catch on, the manual focusing shouldn't be a frustrating experience at all with your long lens. It is a bit impractical, though, if manual focusing your smaller lenses.

Q: 8. What's the difference between regular, Max 4, and Max 5?

Q: 9. Will this fit a Nikon 200-500 at full extension?

A: Yes, it's OK for my NIKON D750 and lens Nikon 200-500.Always in my bag.

Q: 10. Wondering if this size is overkill for use with a Nikon 24-70mm 2.8? It will be fine for my 70-200mm 2.8, but I want to just try one size for (hopefully) both lenses.

A: The Medium is longer than necessary for the 24-70mm lens. But if you want one cover for both your lenses, the Medium size is definitely usable.
