Does anybody know if there is a dust jacket/body protector made for the Epic?
 
Now THAT would be cool/challenging. Will PortaBrace, etc step up? I would think that unlike conventional cameras, since these new gen REDs have attachment points virtually EVERYwhere, and the cooling vents, by the time you design a functional cover that would protect the camera, I think it would consist mostly of a bunch of stitched-together access-flaps! Having said that I am sure portabrace would love to take a crack at it if someone was kind enough to lend a camera for prototyping....

If I had access to an Epic rig, I could make a prototype. I plan on making one as soon as I get my Epic. I started sketching out a few ideas when Epic was announced.
 
I'll volunteer to test your Epic an dust jacket at next year's Burning Man. Unless works there - it aint tested.

Joking aside - the challenge will be ventilation. The Epic fan runs like a 737 and I'll bet in any kind of ambient heat (72+) the dust jacket will create an overheat problemo
