    Default Protective Cases?

    I have a Canon Rebel XS and am looking for suggestions on any cases that would protect it while shooting in the rain... If there are any.

    Thanks!

    You can get waterproof bags or the full underwater housing. The latter for my t3i is more expensive than the cost of the camera itself.

    Check out this link for an ebay store selling the water proof case for your camera.

    If you're serious about shooting during rain, ThinkTank products are the way to go.

    Or, get a weather sealed body and lens and call it a day. :P

    I used to just take a clear trash bag, cut a hole in the bottom, and tape the lens in. A lens hood and/or filter will keep rain off the front and you can use the controls under or through the bag. This works for light rain but isn't good for actual water or pouring rain.
