    Hot Shoe Cover



    I live in a rather rainy area (Seattle) and I'm looking to complete my weather sealing without having walk around with a flash on my camera all of the time. Does anyone know if there is a Hot Shoe cover available?

    Only one I could find forcanon bodieswas this type here:

    Just looks like a piece of plastic you slide in the hotshoe itself. I doubt it would provide much in the way of weather sealing though. Nikon (I know I know) have a rubber one called the BS-1 that looks a bit sturdier and might provide some sealing but I can't say how they'd go on a Canon body.
