How to protect the camera against water and sun

I am trying to find a proper case for my brother's digital SLR camera so he can take kiting pictures at the beach. There are products like the following:

Any recommendations (preferably cheaper options)? JB-007, what do you use for taking pictures?

Yeap, Animus, sorry, just discovering your post. This is the one. The ONLY problem (that is probably not a problem) is that you cannot use polarizing filters with this because the "glass" on the front is actually not made of glass; it is plastic. As a result, it would interfere with a polarizer. Apart of that ,you are all good --unless you want to take pictures of the Titanic that is.
Best, JB-007
All this is probably water under the bridge by now, sorry for that.

Hey! Thanks for the reply, it is still useful since I haven't bought anything yet. I will probably get that for my brothers birthday and go wink wink:)
