I personally have no problem shooting in the rain unprotected. I did it all the time with my Sony A700. I had water poured on a D700 + 24-70mm f2.8 and it shrugged it off, no problem. The only problem shooting in the rain is water on the front element/filter - it's a pain wiping it off all the time, but if you have a lens with a deep hood, it's alright.
