The black Camera Body Armor from PortaBrace is designed to cover and protect your Panasonic HC-X1 camera from rain and debris. It secures around the camera with hook-and-loop fasteners and cinches while leaving access to the camera's controls via a clear window on the side.

The cover is made of water- and abrasion-resistant soft fabric with some padding inside, and it protects against rain, dust, bumps, and scratches. A mesh interior provides airflow around the camera. An additional rain/dust cover is included and fits into a slip pocket.
