Innovative Hands-Free Umbrella That Keeps Your Camera Dry When Shooting In The Rain
A few innocent drops of rain can be fatal to even the most expensive equipment. So to keep it safe Nubrella created this innovative hands-free and wind-resistant umbrella – it keeps the photographer and his gear dry, but doesn’t restrict him from taking pictures.
The company describes its product as “a hands-free, invertible weather protector worn backpack style conveniently functioning like a hood.” The 3-pound Nubrella is built using waterproof nylon, aluminum rods, and glass-filled plastic, allowing the design to withstand winds up to 40 mph. Its wide open front allows convenient visibility and shooting with both hands. The Nubrella is available on the company’s official website with prices starting at $59.99.

totally useless. even a little wind will be enough for the rain to fall diagonally and hit the camera

This might work for a small point&shoot camera that you can put into your pocket between shots, but a big camera like the one shown on the first picture will get wet between the shots while it's dangling from your neck. You will want an environmentally sealed camera for that. It is in fact the Bored Panda commentary that puts emphasis on using this for photography, the creator/official web site barely mentions it. They emphasize hands-free operation and protection for your head. Trouble is, we already have a lightweight solution for that: it's called a rain jacket with a hood.

A rain hacker's hood is insufficient for many disabled folks like myself, struggling with walkers. A slightly deeper version wd also help wheelchair users.
