"Weather" Cover

Hey guys,

As stated in a seperate thread, I'm filming a full-length film up in the Appalachian Mountains and as a result I'm looking for a weather cover for the GL2. Just in case some snow falls and what-not, want to be prepared.

I've looked around and seen Weather covers ranging from $40 to $90, so any suggestions before I make the plunge>?

I use the PortaBrace cover, and have found it to be very effective in bad weather -- even in steady downpours.

Last week I filmed a wedding when the weather outside turned in about 20 minutes from clear to rain. I invented a new weather cover with an umbrella I found in my car and my trusty roll of gaffers tape.

That and a lot of prayer for my GL2!
