Photography in the rain

    There's some great examples of shots taken in some pretty rotten weather here;

    My question as a noob is; how do you take shots like that without ruining your camera?

    For example I was at the NI Airshow the other weekend and had problems with a few light showers where the lens was getting rain drops on, and I was fearing for the body itself.

    And that's just light showers.

    How worried/precious should I be about my camera? Are they pretty robust, or should I wrap it in cotton wool?

    I have an entry level Canon, the EOS 1000D.

    Thanks
    Matt

    Rain/weather protection can be anything from a plastic bag, to a soft cloth, to an Aquatech Sports-shield.

    It depends on how much it's raining, how weather shielded your camera is, and how much you value your gear.
