What about this one?

Swing Handsfree Umbrella is fine on rainy days without wind or storm.
But on heavier weather has anyone made experiences with an EWA-Marine underwater housing to protect his Leica-M?

I have a EWA-marine bag. Works somehow. But isn't real fun.
Takes some time to get the camera in and out. Focusing is also not so easy. But the camera stays dry!
Used it in rain and spray, but not underwater till now.
At the analog camera I have a motordrive attached therefor.
Might work without but I guess it would be more unpleasant.

The times I shot in the rain I wore a wide-brimmed hat and carried the camera inside my rain-proof jacket, taking it out only when I was ready to shoot.   The few rain drops that got on the body were not a problem.  The light on rainy days can be gorgeous.

I wore one of these whilst shooting the first London Marathon using Canon A1s. 135 rolls of film all shot in the drizzle/rain, and the cameras survived fine. Sadly it was televised and I think that I was seen:mellow:.
