Any ghetto methods? Zip-lock bag?

Thanks.

I use a disposable shower cap appropriated from hotels when it's raining but it's not a complete waterproofing solution.

Maybe one of these will work?

Why don't you find the corresponding US model number for you camera and then go look at what makes are available for that model at B&H. Then you can do a local search for them in SA.

I've seen them on Amazon/overseas.

But this is urgent.

While I was overseas I saw some "zip lock" style bags that were meant for submersing your camera under water. I'm not sure if you get such things down here at local shops. Maybe be a brave chap and try out a zip lock bag

Yes. So take note of the make & models you saw overseas and do a local google search for them to see who stocks them locally.

I did try, but came short. You think you'd have better luck?

I saw a Glomail type advert for a universal underwater cover on TV a little while back, I'll try find more info on it.

Would appreciate it. Probably similar to post #4?
