The Think Tank Hydrophobia D 24-70 V3 is a rain cover designed specifically for DSLR camera bodies paired with a 24–70mm f/2.8 lens. It protects your gear in heavy rain or dusty conditions while allowing you to operate the camera effectively. Separate eyepiece is required for full use (sold separately).

Top-level protection and construction

Hydrophobia rain covers are the highest quality and most protective rain covers on the market. They use a durable, three-layer construction and are seam-sealed to keep water and dust out. As a result, your camera and lens remain protected in downpour or dusty conditions, while you continue shooting.

Key features

• 3-layer material for superior durability
• Seam-sealed for maximum protection in downpour or dusty conditions
• Eyepiece allows full access to viewfinder while protecting your camera (eyepiece required for proper use—sold separately)

Additional features and handling

The Hydrophobia D 24-70 V3 includes a number of thoughtful design elements that support real-world use in adverse conditions. For example, it has an oversize window so you can view the LCD and controls without exposing the camera. Two cinchable sleeves let you put your hands directly on the camera to access all functions quickly.

• Integrated waterproof shoulder strap allows the camera to be worn on the shoulder while the cover is attached (note: excludes 300–600 version); you can replace it with your preferred strap if desired

• Eyepiece flap folds into a visor or, when not in use, shields the viewfinder from rain or dust

• Rainproof front element cover is included for additional protection of the lens front
