WR prefix is weather resistant not "proof" as others have pointed out.
have DA 18-55WR, biggest advantage seems to be in regards to dust.
Does well in minimizing debris on sensor of camera body and stuff being drawn
into lens barrel as zoom and focusing mechanism turn.
Two K & M series lens that Ive had longest, M50/1.4 and K300/4 have held
up very well, but dont generally use in "downpoors and rainstorms"
M400/5.6 is "loose as a goose" yet so easy to dis-assemble and clean out,
that [WR] relative that particular lens, means little or nothing.
Plastic bags and such, as others mentioned, has served just as well as WR.
Your experience may vary.
