[jobes]

I don't know about the portbrace one, but the KATA K-Raco-150 rain slicker is sold for the HVX 200, although it's originally made for the dvx 100. So I guess rs-dvx100 will be fine, they both look very similar.

rain slicks are not usually skin tight, they usuaully sit fairly loose on the camera.

... you know, just to make your life easier!

Sorry that I am not of any real help. But the Porta Brace slicker is roomy on the DVX.

Good luck with your shoot!

Just found this info under the HVX hardware section...

May be of some use. I also found that there is a Porta Brace slicker made for the HVX. If you're going to order one and they have it in stock, might as well get the one made for it. Definitely worth protecting that investment!!!
