when I am stood on the beach shooting Kite / windsurfers with an on-shore force 6 wind, spume, sand and seaweed flying through the air and its hissing with rain I can assure you weather sealing is a gimmick I wouldn't be without (especially when it comes to washing the salt and crud off afterwards )

and don't forget to put that protection filter on the end of the lens, another very useful gimmick that has saved me a few bob over the years, much better to scratch a filter than the front element of my lens

So much to learn, so little time left to do it!
