Have you always used the same brand of food wrap ... what brand ? Maybe I
can try it as sort of a replaceable dust/spatter wrap around a 35mm film cam
lens mounted similar here. (Screws into a flashlight case with cam guts
inside).

But are any of the IP cameras weatherproof? I have yet to see one that

is.

I bought a $30 indoor camera on a close-out sale and installed it high on
the gable end of the garage over the big door. I intended to slip a jar

of
some kind over it to keep the rain and snow off, but the camera has a

bunch
of IR LEDs built in for illumination, and they reflected badly off the

jar.
Thinking this was a short term project, I simply taped a piece of plastic
food wrap tightly around the camera. It has been through two years of

heat
and cold, rain and snow, and has never missed a beat.
