How to Make a Camera Rain Cover
- 1). Use the scissors to cut a small hole on the closed end of the trash bag. The hole should be smaller than the lens of the camera you are using.
- 2). Place the camera in the bag through the large open side. When inside, fit the lens of your camera through the small hole, slowly stretching it wider. Stop stretching when the lens of the camera fits snugly in the hole.
- 3). Test the cover indoors before taking it outside into a deluge. To do this, put a small piece of paper towel in between the camera and the rain cover. Place it in the sink, turn on the faucet and let a small amount of water drip down.
- 4). If the paper towel is dry, you are ready to snap away. Put your head under the bag, look through the camera's lens and take photos just like you would if it were dry outside.
- 5). If the paper towel is wet, that means your rain cover isn't satisfactory. Either start over with a new plastic bag or purchase a professionally made rain cover from a photography store.
