SLR Dust Protection

I found some great jackets for my video gear from KATA-

Dust getting into the tape mechanism wreaks havoc on a video camera and
it ends up throwing up error codes....Not fun. Eventually I'll get cameras that record to memory cards.
I have yet to buy a DSLR....eventually I will.

What are you guys using to protect your SLR's in dusty conditions?

I don't change the lens unless I'm sheltered (in the truck or wherever). Seems to work.

Just try to be conscious about dust. Also turn off your camera before you change lenses, it helps quite a bit, though possibly more so on a CCD chip than CMOS due to the charge levels.

NEVER change lenses if there's the slightest hint of a breeze when in a dusty env.

Doing this will minimize the chances the most. :ylsmoke:
