I have a aquatech rain cover bought from Barker, and I have to say that it is the best investment that I have made. Prior to the aquatech I destroyed a 70-200 f2.8 lens in the rain in Mondello Park. The cover might be expensive but it is worth every penny when you dont have to buy a new lens.

Which model did you buy for your 70-200mm f2.8?

I am not sure which one to get for mine? Will the Sport Basic be ok?

Hi Ken,
I was following the posts on the forum and realised we had not adjusted the Aquatech prices to reflect the Dollar changes lately. The Revised prices are:
Eyepieces: €35.95 (Eyepiece is required to fit the cover to the camera and anchor it in place)
Basic sport (200mm) €89.95
200mm €204.49
300mm €216.59
600mm €228.69 The Offer of Free delivery for Forum members who mention this post is still valid.
(All Prices include Irish Vat of 21%)

Will the basic sport cover a Canon 70-200mm f2.8 ??

Thanks

Got the Aquatech for my 70-200mm 2.8 today in Barkers – just waiting for the rain – don’t think I’ll have to wait long.

Must say lovely people to deal with and more importantly they know their stuff – was call “product knowledge” in the old days, not sure what tag they have on it now !!
