User Manual

Designed for use with longer lenses, this durable and water-resistant rain cover protects your Canon DSLR camera or Nikon DSLR camera with a square viewfinder from conditions like rain, dust, and mud, so you can shoot in almost any weather condition. The rain cover's control window provides full visibility of your camera's monitor and top and rear controls. The window features a port for the included eyepieces, so you can enjoy an unobstructed view through your camera's viewfinder. The rain cover is easy to set up and remove, allows full access to your camera, and won't take up a lot of space in your photo bag.

Before you install one of the included eyepiece assemblies, you will need to determine which one fits your camera. The rain cover comes with three sizes of eyepiece assembly (small, medium, and large).

1. Remove your camera's eyepiece by pinching the eyepiece and pulling it up and off your camera's viewfinder.
