Have never used but since they help the lens never seeing light (flare) I can guess how it got it's name.

I do not have the slightest idea what you're talking about!


After checking the link, I know what it is, but I have never heard it being called that, to me it has always been a simple lens sock!

But you have to verify that you're over 21.

Clever. I learn something new here every day.

By the way, does that guy have a bionic left arm?

Think about what knickers used to look like say in the 1800's. Now color them black to match a Nun's Habit.

Good name for what it does!

I’m wondering how thick that blackout cloth is and where one can purchase yardage of it - it would make great bellows liner if it’s thin enough.
