This Hydrophobia DM 300-600 V3 rain cover uses RealTree APX fabric to help wildlife photographers stay discreet while protecting camera gear from rain, dust and rough outdoor conditions. It combines the Hydrophobia Series’ seam-sealed 3-layer construction with the RealTree APX camouflage pattern used widely in hunting to offer realistic concealment in natural environments. The cover works with both DSLR and mirrorless cameras when a model-specific Hydrophobia eyepiece is attached (eyepiece sold separately).

Use the integrated features such as the eyepiece pocket and eyepiece flap to keep viewfinder access convenient while maintaining protection. For shoulder carry, check whether your specific 300-600 item includes the integrated strap; this model excludes the strap. The cover is designed so the camera strap can be secured inside the cover and the non-slip strap can attach to the lens hood for a stable fit. A rainproof front lens element cover and a carrying pouch are included for transport and extra protection.
