Panasonic Quick Access Rain Slick for AG-CX350 Camcorder
The Panasonic Quick Access Rain Slick (QRS-AGCX350) is purpose-built protection for outdoor video work, designed to fit the AG-CX350 camcorder like a second skin. This rain slick blends rugged weather defense with seamless accessibility, ensuring you never miss a shot while battling wind, rain, or dust. Built around a custom-fit silhouette, it envelops the camera without muffling essential controls or sightlines. Velcro-sealed flaps give you weather-tight seals that can be opened in a heartbeat for rapid adjustments, while clear vinyl windows keep the camera’s live monitor and status indicators in view. Zippered openings further enhance access to ports, batteries, or small accessories, so you can swap an SD card, replace a battery, or tweak camera settings without removing the cover. The triple-layer Parapack nylon, finished with a soft tricot surface, guards the camera against moisture and abrasion, keeping sensitive electronics dry in downpours, spray, or mist. In harsh environments—from rain-soaked documentary shoots to wet weather news coverage—the Rain Slick minimizes downtime and protects your investment, letting you stay focused on the story rather than on weather conditions. Its lightweight, compact design packs away easily when not in use, and its durable construction stands up to repeated field deployments, season after season. If you shoot outdoors with the AG-CX350 and want reliable, quick-access weather protection, the Rain Slick is a compelling choice that blends practical protection with professional workflow efficiency.
- Custom-fit design for the AG-CX350: Precisely shaped to cradle the camera body, with cutouts and alignments that preserve access to essential controls, ports, and the viewfinder. The tailored fit minimizes bulk while maximizing protection, so you can shoot confidently in variable conditions.
- Fast, weather-tight access: Velcro-sealed flaps and sturdy zippered openings allow quick operation—change settings, swap accessories, or monitor shots without removing the cover. The design emphasizes speed in the field, reducing downtime during changing weather or tight shoot schedules.
- Clear visibility with weather protection: Transparent vinyl windows provide uninterrupted visibility of the camera monitor and indicators while still shielding sensitive components from rain, spray, and dust. You can frame, check focus, and adjust exposure without exposing the camera to the elements.
- Water-repellent, durable shell: The triple-layer Parapack nylon encases the camera with a rugged barrier. The outer shell resists abrasion, while the inner layers work together with a tricot finish to repel moisture, helping to keep internal electronics dry during outdoor shoots.
- Lightweight portability and reliability: Designed for field use, the Rain Slick is easy to carry, quick to deploy, and built to endure repeated outdoor deployments. Its compact profile means it won’t add significant weight or bulk to your rig, and it stores neatly in a bag or rig case when not in use.
