HoodLoupe® Outdoor Loupe for 3.2" LCD Optics and Base

I always struggled with daylight shots to see the image on the back of my camera. This device works a treat and so important to see the effect of OCF when doing a fashion shoot outside on location. I just wear it round my neck and dont attach it to my camera. It has an adjustable eye piece so I can focus it onto the image on the back of my camera. It might be a bit expensive for what it is but much better than the cheaper alternatives that only screen the sunshine and dont have an adjustable eyepiece for different eye sights. I'm very please I bought it and would recommend it to any serious photographer

Although expensive for what they are i found it very usefull item on bright sunny days i can see the detail in my shots a lot better this is a must gadget for your camera bag

This product has been a game changer for me. As a professional sports photographer I regularly shoot outside in bright sunlight making seeing the LCD screen difficult. After a shoot where I spent more time trying to shield my screen form the sun to see what I had shot, than I did actually shooting I bought myself a loupe. Lots of time saved using this to check exposure and composition. Very impressed with how the x3 magnification compliments the screen without making it a pixilated mess. Really well built, and feels like it will survive long days around my neck. Only given it four stars as I think the price may be a little steep. That being said Hoodman products are always priced at a premium but I have never had anything of theirs fail on me.

Personally I think this is over priced but saying that if your blinkers are wearing out then this is the perfect companion for them and if struggle to see your camera screen in bright daylight then this Loupe is for you. Despite whinging about the price I would still recommend it to anyone who is thinking of buying one

This product is a very useful addition for my photo hobby as my eyesight is pretty poor . well made and good optics

2nd time purchase --- 1st one unfortunately stolen. Makes all the difference when viewing lcd screen in bright light. Neat and very well made. Always carry in my camera bag.

Seemed an expensive extra but i’d Been told it was worth it. It is. Very happy with this purchase and this seller

Superb for viewing image quality in more detail (even in sunlight) Recommended

Very well designed, allowing light to still enter so the screen stays doesn’t switch off. Makes an enormous difference to be able to review photos and ensure focus is correct. Especially helpful for macro work.

Works well, a bit expensive for a plastic item !

Very well-built. Very useful. Kinda pricey, but you get what you pay for. Avoid the knockoffs. I've tried a couple of other loupes from different manufacturers in an attempt to save money, but they did not work as well as this original Hoodman loupe. Perfect fit for my Nikon D810. Does a great job with blocking out light in the environment, but I don't want to have to hold it in place. Those elastic bands from Hoodman are too expensive and really don't work very well, according to several reviewers. I want to use adhesive to attach this loupe to my D810's snap-on screen protector which is made of plastic, but I'm unsure which adhesive would be best for this task. I will do some more research on this and may post an updated review. The advantage would be my Hoodman loupe being more securely attached to my D810, held in place by the snap-on points of the Nikon BM-12 screen protector, which also makes it removable when I want to use just the screen without a loupe...or I could just unclip and remove the eyepiece portion of my Hoodman H32MB loupe, leaving just the base still attached.

Well made, quality product. Easy to use. Optical quality could be better, but that could be just my eyes.

In molti casi, soprattutto nella fotografia notturna, mettere a fuoco correttamente è un'impresa assai difficile. Utilizzando lo schermo della macchina si può aumentare l'ingrandimento dell'immagine, ma essendo un ingrandimento non ottico ma elettronico, il rumore digitale che si crea rende questa operazione del tutto inutile. Con questo prodotto invece senza ingrandire i dettagli elettronicamente, è possibile ingrandire grazia alla buonissima lente, l'immagine e quindi mettere a fuoco perfettamente. Molto utile anche di giorno per verificare che gli scatti appena fatti non abbiano problemi di messa a fuoco o microcosmo con tempi lunghi. Ottimo prodotto che sicuramente ricomprerei anche se esageratamente caro.
