" A Cameramac is a vital part of my photographic equipment, and is used on a frequent basis. Whilst photographing football matches, the Cameramac allows me to keep my eye on the action rather than worrying about keeping my camera dry. I have tried several different camera covers and the Cameramac is the only one that really works." |

Teaching landscape photography is not just about fair weather photography, especially in the Lake District! I have been using Cameramacs for about 8 years now and not only have they allowed me to keep taking photographs when the weather turns nasty, but they have undoubtedly saved me a fortune in camera repairs and written off cameras. I often say to my guests, “there is no such thing as bad weather….only different types of lighting”.
I love the subtle tones that rainy weather produces – both in the landscape environment and in the close-up world. The protection offered by the Cameramac is second to none. Firstly, its made-to-measure design means that it fits the lens perfectly – even with a large bellows lens hood attached – it also works perfectly with my Lee Filter system. Moreover the new design of the rubber seal around the eyepiece seals the join perfectly, keeping rain out and offers a clear, uninterrupted view through the eyepiece – as opposed to many rain covers which make the user view through a thick sheet of clear(ish) plastic. The opening under the Cameramac allows full access to all camera and lens controls, and the viewing windows are positioned to give a clear view of the LCD and top plate panels to keep camera operation simple. In short, a simple, effective, well designed product. My list of equipment needed for landscape photography is simple: Camera, lenses, filters, tripod and Cameramac.
A measure of how good the Cameramac is, is the fact that many of our guests own a Cameramac themselves by their second visit to us.
