[Lightstalkers] Camera Armour http://www.lightstalkers.org/camera_armour An entire Lightstalkers thread via RSS/XML. en-us Camera Armour hey guys, just came across an interesting bit of kit and thought it might be useful for some others out there too. Is anyone already using it and if so is it any good? http://www.camerarmor.com/ Chris Wed, 12 Mar 2008 12:55:20 +0000 http://www.lightstalkers.org/camera_armour Re: Camera Armour I really can't see the point of that. Is it genuine armour as in it can stop bullets? Or is it something like a 'protective filter' that causes more problems than it solves?

I'd like to get some to match the plastic sheets that I have covering my couch.

It does nothing to stabilize the internal parts, which is really the only way to ruggedize a piece of electronic equipment.

Some guy had one on at an event I was shooting. It sure did get MY attention... seems pretty useless indeed...

What if I have a verical grip on my D200? What then? Tue, 10 Apr 2007 12:35:38 +0000 http://www.lightstalkers.org/camera_armour#66444
