Sony digital 8 camcorders Please help?

Question

1. Is there a camcorder cover that would go over the camcorder so I can film in the rain without risking my camcorder getting ruined in heavy rain like a hurricane?

2. Where is the Info Lithium M battery located on my cmcorder? My model number is DCR-TRV 830.

3. Also, if you could gie me an estimated cost on the following items, that would be great:

i.link/firewire interface s400

firewire port

Is the AV cable the same as the TV cable used to connect my camcorder to the TV?

Answer 1

used to work on a boat filming, loads of water and salty not the best combi, try a black plastic bag and insulation tape, (this is not a joke it works) make an opening for the lens, tape round that.

  the open part of the bag you run your hand up closing it with a rubber band YOU CAN GET RAIN COVERS FOR CAMERAS BUT THEY ARE EXPENSIVE (note rain covers)  for hurricanes if you are brave enough then a full housing would be the thing, they use them for diving, water proof up to about 30m but the cost is almost as much as your camera!!!!!!!!
