Normally, it’s hard to get overly excited about a rain cover, but when I heard the Photo Storm Cape is set to become the French editing software company, DxO Labs’, first physical product, it certainly caught my attention. It supposedly offers “uncompromising protection, premium high-tech materials, exclusive innovations, and exceptional comfort and style,” and was unveiled at the opening of the CP+ 2025 Camera and Photo Imaging Show in Tokyo, which is happening right now.
The Photo Storm Cape certainly is something different from the best rain covers in that it's a wearable rain cover. You heard that right. Think poncho and hood but with extra provision for your camera. The beauty of this is that it's designed to keep your camera sheltered even when swapping lenses. Pretty neat!
