Are Tamrac bags water-resistant?
Tamrac camera and video bags are constructed with fabrics that have a thick waterproof coating which makes the bag material quite weatherproof. However, the seams are not sealed and the zippers are not waterproof so extreme exposure to water, such as submersion in part or full, may admit water into the bag interior. So, while not completely waterproof, our bags’ coatings, their Total Coverage Tops, and Rain Flaps combine to offer excellent protection against rain, dust and sand. For backpacks which are going to be carried flat with the front of the pack facing up, (like on the back of a motorcycle or in the back of a pickup truck), we make a raincover (Model MX5352/medium, MX5354/large) for models 757, 759, 767, 777, 787 and 5575, which offers additional protection for everything except the back of the backpack and harness.
