Works Nicely

Fits the Canon XH A1 well. I've only tested the rain cover under a slight drizzle but it worked well enough.
My only complaint is that the viewfinder is hard to see because of the the glare that shows up on the material that the clear side is made of. |

Great to film outside

| This is a great rain cover, I use it for the DVX-100. I would prefer if t had a filter adapter in front to attach a filter, but besides that it's a great cover, pretty flexible and you can control everything with your hand inside, or on a tripod. |

Gotta keep your camera dry, right? Right!

During the previous 4-5 years, I've been using 1st a Canon GL1, then a GL2, to perform outside video gigs. So I've always had a rain cover one way or another on the camera during those questionable weather days. Thank goodness! And the one brand of rain cover that never failed me with the Kata. I tried others, even the "cheap" ones. But the Kata cover was great.
Well, I finally upgraded to the Canon XH A1 so I could start building up my ambience library of HDV footage. Of course, this meant I would be outside a lot, between the Eastern Shore of MD, the Appalachian mountains, VA Beach, yada yada yada and other outdoorsy settings. So, what did I definitely need in my accessory bag? Another rain cover. I found many inexpensive "rain sleeves", but I nixed that idea since I didn't want my expensive and quality camera to be covered with a thin plastic sleeve. I wanted a quality cover! And since I had previous experiences with Kata, I looked there.
The Kata RC-14 rain cover, covering my Canon XH A1 camera, is a perfect collection of both fit and function. Having the snug-fit closures around the lens, viewfinder, and microphone makes it easy to adjust and snug well...and stays that way. The opening along the bottom made it easy for me to hold the camera, or place it on my Bogen tripod. And the clear plastic sides allow me to adjust the myriad selection of controls on the camera without removing the cover.
Last weekend, here in Maryland we had an incredible storm front come through, with lots of rain, wind, thunder & lightning. So, here was a great opportunity to gather more HD footage during the storm. However, since I didn't want my camera to get wasted in the outside elements, the Kata rain cover was used. Was I disappointed? Heck no!
Other than the haze filter on my lens, NOTHING on my camera got wet. I had adjusted the snug-fit openings well enough that even with the rain blowing almost totally sideways, none of it got in. Even my arm holding the camera was totally drenched, but not the camera inside the drenched rain cover. And I was still able to view the storm through either the viewfinder (used most of the time) or via the side LCD, without removing the cover.
Will I be buying another Kata? Definitely...
BTW, I checked all over the net for the best price and ended up buying it here on Amazon. No, I don't work for these guys, just a quick mention. |
