Listener question – I Want To Go Out And Shoot In The Rain But My Camera Is Not Weatherproof. Hi and welcome to Episode 116 of the Photography Explained podcast.

I’m your host Rick, and in each episode I will try to explain one photographic thing to you in plain English in less than 10 minutes (ish) without the irrelevant details. What I tell you is based on my lifetime of photographic experience. And not Google. No Google required but I did need my camera which was nice.

Before I go on I need your help. I need your questions to answer. More on this at the end.

Here is the answery bit.
To take photos in the rain safely there are a number products and techniques that you can use to protect your camera from damage. Some cameras are weatherproof, but still need protecting where possible, whereas cameras which are not weatherproofed required further measures to make sure that they are not damaged by rain.

So there are three parts to this

1. Camera weatherproof or not?
2. Smart working.
3. Protective gear.
