Weather-proofing your DSLR camera for cheap.

When using my camera at TechShop to shoot in some dusty environment, I want to protect my camera with a plastic bag. I've also used this technique to shoot on a mildly rainy day outside. I made this one at TechShop in Menlo Park (http://www.techshop.ws/), right before shooting in the paint room.

Very few hings you need for this job:

1. Large enough ziploc (or similar) plastic bag.
2. DSLR camera with hooded lens;
3. Pair of scisors;
4. And some good quality gaffers tape.

Make sure that the gaffers tape you're using is not leaving sticky residue when removed. That's the reason why those tapes sold at B&H Photo are so much more expensive that stuff from your local utility store.
