I don't generally worry too much about taking equipment out in poor conditions, WR or not, but on one occasion I got caught out and I got stuck briefly in a nasty downpour. Both the camera and lens were fine however, much to my surprise, and no problems have been found with either since that time over a year ago. As my little part of the world is now getting regular rain again - and torrential it was this morning, with the end of my garden still flooded - a WR lens gives me peace of mind whilst out and about, particularly as I take loads of photos in forest land where trees drip hours after the rain has stopped.
