Looking to hear what all of you have going for rain cover solutions for your monitor when it comes to salvaging the most viewable image available. Obviously going without a cover in light rain is preferable, but when it gets heaviest or rain towers, we all have to button up. What tricks do you have up your collective sleeves? I've always used saran wrap and just toughed it out, but it leaves a lot to be desired if you you are fighting to see with bright, overhead silks. Any particular plastics out there anyone knows of? maybe dedicated hard plastic with anti-glare on it that can be welded into a wrap around cover? Any new tech that improves this situation? Also for you Transvideo guys, how much water do you let touch the monitor before you wrap it up?
Thanks!
Hi Brett, I have been a Focus Puller since the film days. I have been making custom camera rain covers for Dop's for many years.( and I create custom leather accessories) I was working on "Fahrenheit 451 last week. Both steadicam operators want a custom rain cover. I have an exclusive polymer that will not crack minus 45 degrees, is optically clear, touch screen sensitive and I use waterproof zippers , and Nylon cordura. I still work as a focus puller on dailies and design and manufacture custom rain covers and accessories. I have sold many Preston combo Monitor rain covers. Although I have a web address: www.cameraraincovers.com I am busy making the covers and getting them out to customers. I will have my website built soon. Please contact me any time .Lori Longstaff 416 452-9247 llong@rogers.com
