After reading Greg Boston's review of the Cam-Kote for the XL2, I decided this was the one for me (especially since the rain cape that came with my Kata bag is ideally made for the XL1 and doesn't really fit the XL2). His findings are correct, it took a while to figure out how to put it on properly.

Is anyone else out there using the Cam-Kote on their XL2? I'm worried that the stiffness of the fabric may damage my eyepiece. Is this something I need to be worried about?

What is the strip of velcro under the rain shroud at the back end for? Cables??

Thanks.
