For Glare Free LCD screen viewing, checking your histogram, focus and composition outdoors is easy with the Hoodman HoodLoupe. The Hoodman HoodLoupe is worn around your neck just like a normal loupe. When you wish to review your shot, simply place the Hoodloupe™ on the image on your LCD screen and place your eye up to the rubber eye cup for comfortable glare free viewing. The Hoodloupe™ has a +/-3 diopter compensation and focuses just like a binocular eyepiece - the eyepiece turns left or right to adjust for your eyesight. Each Hoodloupe has a protective rubber in key areas for both comfort and protection from general wear and tear. The Hoodloupe has a diameter of 3" so will fit completely over most 3" D-SLR and camcorder screens. The HoodLoupe 3.0 is engineered to give you a true 1 to 1 LCD screen image. It is built using German glass optics from Schott allowing a plus or minus 3 diopter adjustment.
Features of the Hoodman Hoodloupe™ • Designed for all LCD screens • ± 3 diopter adjustment • German glass optics • Rubber coated body • Detachable lanyard • Carry case included
You know how it is when shooting outside in bright light - you can't see the back of your screen to assess your shots, and you're constantly trying to shield the screen with your hands, arms, jacket, or even nipping inside! The Hoodman Hoodloupe has to be one of the best products we sell - every delegate on our workshops wants one when they see just how fabulous it is. Some competitors who do not understand LCD screen viewing will offer you a single lens magnifying solution as well. You will find as we did, that magnification just makes the pixels of an LCD screen bigger resulting in image distortion. Making the call on focus is very difficult when your image is over pixilated through optical magnification. The HoodLoupe 3.0 uses 3 German glass lenses in its optical solution and is guaranteed to give you the best optical solution for viewing your LCD screen in the field. A comfortable lanyard and padded leather belt case are included.
