Photography Gadget Allows You to Chimp in Broad Daylight!

The HoodLoupe 2.0 is a gadget I will have to tether to my camera!  I cannot leave home without it!  So many times I don’t know if I “got the shot” when looking at my LCD in broad daylight.  The HoodLoupe blocks out all light (eliminating glare!) and allows you to chimp your image on the spot!

I picked mine up from Mike’s Camera – they have the most knowledgeable salesmen around!

 

At the time of this entry, the HoodLoupe is up to 3.0 – Check it out here

Hoodloupetm Professional is worn around your neck just like a normal loupe. When it is time to review your shot; bring Hoodloupetm up to your image and place your eye up to the eye cup for complete glare free viewing. Hoodloupetm has a +-3 diopter to accommodate those with less than perfect vision. Hoodloupetm adjusts focus just like a binocular eye piece… you turn the eye piece in or out to set for your vision. Minimal magnification is used to eliminate visual pixilation of your image. Each Hoodloupetm is encased in a user friendly rubber for comfort and protection from bumps that will occur throughout your shoot. Comfortable lanyard and compact protective storage case included. Fits up to 3.0 inch LCD screens.

    That gadget is sooooo cool! I couldn’t believe when we were on the Adobe photowalk how well you could see the image. I also loved how it magnified the image! I’m off to go find one for a vacation coming up. Thanks for the idea to tether it to the camera Kim!

    I forgot to mention, it did come with a handy protective case that has a belt clip. (I just would like to have it readily accessible at all times. :) )
