Tamrac 5535 waterproofing

[david_russell8]

<p>I currently have a Crumpler Muffin Top 4000, which (just) holds my K20D and the two kit zooms. My problem is that I now have a flashgun and another lens, and might well have more kit in the future. I was thinking of getting a Tamrac 5535 (aka "Adventure 5") as it seems to be about the size I'm looking for (ie will hold my existing stuff plus possibly another lens or two). The one thing that's concerning me is how waterproof it is. I have a Timbuk2 messenger bag (regrettably the Domke inserts are horrifically expensive here in the UK, so I can't just use that) and I have had it out in torrential rain without anything getting inside. I'm assuming that the Tamrac won't be as good as that?</p>

<p>Also, if anyone knows of reasonably-priced (in the UK) messenger bag inserts then could you post links? I'd really like to do that if possible, mainly for the comfort of using a bag type I'm comfortable with rather than any supposed 'less obvious to thieves' benefits.</p>
