Shutter Hat

 

by FM Photography

 

 

Price.....$39.95

 

The ShutterHat camera cover keeps your camera dry while allowing easy access to all camera controls, including the lens zoom mechanism. It’s perfect for light rain, snow, and blowing debris. Plus, it’s lightweight, easy to install, and will not blow off.

It has slots for your camera strap to fit through, which allows proper positioning of the camera when carrying it over your shoulder. An inside pocket hold flash cards, batteries, lens caps, or even Gummy Bears.

Mounting your ShutterHat using the rubber mount closest to the edge forms a small brim over the back of your camera providing moderate protection from the elements, and is ideal for hand-held shooting. A second rubber mount allows for more complete protection of the camera back.

Fits lenses up to 8” long.

The Shutter Hat comes with:
Micro Fiber Cloth
Carrying bag with clip

All I can say is WOW! The ShutterHat is definitely a winner. It's compact, well made, and a quality product. Plus, the price is right. As a long-time Nikon shooter and wildlife photographer, my lens of choice is their 80-400mm VR lens. The ShutterHat is the perfect addition and protects not only my lens, but keeps my digital body dry during an Alaskan downpour or winter snowfall in Yellowstone . I'm confident that Canon shooters will share these same sentiments when using the ShutterHat with their 100mm-400mm IS lens.
