Taking pictures in the rain…..Any tips?

Well, I’ve got A nikon D40, and I want to take some pictures in the rain.
But as I know the D40 is not "water-resistant", so what should I do to protect the camera and the lens?

and do you have any tips to share?

thank you! :)

I mean i cannot laminate it coz thrs a camera behind and i’m too scared of the rains as it has already cost me a mobile in the past. Plz tell all the accessories that are needed to make it possibly water resistant, coz i dun want the rain to mess wid this one.

What kind of digital camera should I get?

I am in the market for a good, nearly indestructible camera. In a year’s time, I accidentally destroyed two cameras because of my lifestyle.

I am constantly out on adventures in the snow, rain, sunshine, at the beach, in the desert, in the mountains, on rivers, camping, hiking, snowboarding, ATVing. You name it, I do it.

I am just looking for a good camera that is fairly shock proof and water resistant and also takes nice pictures. A plus would be long-lasting batteries. Also, I don’t want to pay too much more than 0.

Thanks for your insight! :D
Also, I’m not a camera expert. I’m looking for something that is user friendly. I’m not looking for super awesome, professional photos; just good enough to be able to look back at my adventures and be happy.

I’m getting a camera and some of them say they’re waterproof. Does this mean I can use them under the water or does it mean I can use them in the rain without them shutting down?
Also how can a camera shoot underwater if it isn’t waterproof/water resistant? Some that aren’t say they can take underwater pictures.
