To what degree can one use the D2 series camera's in rain without cover ? Instinct always made me run for cover even when the first drop of water touched my skin. But in a recent trip was told by a gentleman pro that these cameras can handle rain very well and no need to worry. Common sense states that these are definitely not water sealed. So to what extent can one get them wet. If at all on gets caught in a heavy shower , what parts if any should be dried out ? The reason I am asking this question is that I have a feeling that some moisture may have entered my camera on a recent shoot causing my clock battery to discharge rapidly thus resetting the clock. Do you think it is possible that moisture could have got in ? Has anyone had any water or moisture damage to any of his Nikon pro gear ?
Incidentally, I just saw some rain covers in a thread on another forum. Are these effective ? Do any of you use them.
Thanks in advance.
