I usually will carry my umbrella and that mostly keeps me and my camera dry as long as there is no strong wind. With strong wind then usually no umbrella. It, of course, can sometimes be a bit awkward to take a photo trying to hold the umbrella while also using 2 hands for the camera. Yet, I have done it countless timeser.

Never tried one myself, Henry, but maybe you need something like this here    :

What I have used, only once and just for fun, many years ago, was this € 3 soccer fan merchandise thing (on a walk in the forest where nobody could see me!)

Worked (as long as you kept the camera close to your face!).
