broken LCD hoodmans
Blogged in The Woodwork: Hoodman woes.
This is a picture of my two Hoodman H-D70 FlipUp LCD caps. The one on the left broke due to my negligence during a hike in Oregon (the left cover and spring disappeared in the water due under regular use, but I had a nervous habit where I open and close the thing constantly). The one on the right failed on it’s first use and was defectively made near the hinge (or assembled incorrectly).
Strangely the areas that were weak/defective areas on one are rock solid on the other.
I used Dave McNally’s low tech product shot setup to take this photo. I dodged the photo to the whiteground using levels but then reduced the opacity it to return a hint of shadow.
( Nikon D70 ) ƒ22, iso200, 1/3sec, 55mm, tripod, SB-800 slave
DxO (color, blur, distortion, ca, vignette, lighting, noise), Photoshop (levels)
