I've been quite curios about this question.

Not sure... was standing in the middle of the street when I took this photograph...
Actually... I really didn't think about the rain, as I was burning film as fast I could. But I was with a group of photographers and I was only one standing in the middle of the road taking photos. In fact, it turned out they were standing under the awnings taking photos of me standing in the rain taking photos!
Good quality SLR's are definitely tougher in terms of impact resistance imo.
Shooting with my favorite foul weather combo, a Canon 1D Mark IIn and 24-70mm f/2.8L lens - that rainstorm would be nothing to worry about. 😀
I would guess that after dunking an M3 in the sink, the finder would be pretty much useless.
As for washing cameras in the sink, I could've sworn I read that somewhere (on the Interweb everything is true, right?). Something about grit and mud fouling up the camera and it's either wash it and let it dry out or go home without pictures. Naturally, not something I'd likely want to do as it would rust steel, wash out lubricants and likely trash cloth shutters, but...
