Need advice for shooting in the rain

Our take

Shooting in the rain can be a creative challenge, especially in a picturesque location like Scotland. While using an umbrella is a common solution, it can become cumbersome, particularly with manual focus cameras like the Kiev 88. To safeguard your gear, consider waterproof camera covers designed for your specific models, or invest in a rain sleeve that allows for easy adjustments. Additionally, explore weather-sealed lens options or protective filters.

Im going up to scotland in a couple days and I think its going to rain for most of the time im there. :(. Apart from using an umbrella im not really sure what to do to keep the rain off of my cameras. An umbrella seems good, until I use a camera with manual focus. Then it's awkward.

I have a kiev 88 and canon eos 600D im planning on using so I dont think it will be quite as simple as buying one of those bags I put over the camera. Especially considering the kiev is shaped like a brick.

If anyone knows any good products or advice on what I can do to keep dry, please let me know. I would appreciate any and all advice on the subject. Thank you :)
