Waterproof Camera Bag for DSLR and Lens

My 'point & shoot' is attached to my pack strap by a carabiner through it's carry case. In light 'wet', I put a zip-lock plastic bag over it. If it gets too wet for usage, I unclip the carabiner & totally seal the bag.

I haven't tried it but have you looked at the Aarn offering? One of their front pocket options is designed specifically for SLR cameras, although using it also means buying into the entire Aarn pack philosophy.

Thanks Pro-active. I guess that is a similar thing that I am thinking of with a smaller dry bag, but a lot of the bags I have looked at are a tight fit in diameter (not length) and I think I would struggle to pull my camera in and out easily. We also have a point and shoot that we can take, but I am specifically looking for something that will work for my DSLR. My preference is to take my 5D. As it is I have reduced from 2 lenses, carbon fibre tripod and various things such as remote switches. I now usually only take the camera and one lens with a spare battery and memory cards. I don't mind the weight and find that carrying it on my belt works well for me. It's just that it rains so much that it ends up in my pack a lot. My husband uses a chest harness with a great camera bag with a full dry bag designed for the camera. I have the same bag, but it doesn't have a belt loop. I can't use the chest harness comfortably (perhaps the different anatomy in that area??). The setup I have works really well for me other than when it rains. It honestly doesn't seem like it should be such a hard thing to find - a simple waterproof case with a belt loop that will fit my camera! The salesgirl at the last camera shop I went to told me that these days the person had to fit the bag rather than the bag fitting the person. She also told me that she got her boyfriend to carry all her camera gear when they go hiking because he is stronger than her. At that point I walked out in disgust. I carry my own gear and always will.

Hi izogi, It looks interesting, I would like to see them in action, but it's not really what I am looking for. I actually have a Macpac pack Espirit which I love and is by far the most comfortable pack I have had to date, so I am not inclined to go for a whole new system just for the camera. I do appreciate the suggestion though - I would definitely keep it in mind for the future!

I use Zip-lock bags as well. I put my camera in a zip-lock and then put that inside the camera bag which is usually slung over my shoulder while tramping. Spare batteries and lens cloth which normally live in a pouch in the lid of the camera bag also get zip-locked. Works fine for me. You can get zip-locks in a variety of sizes so I'm sure even big DSLRs with multiple lenses could be bagged.
