Camera Hacks
August 14th, 2006

This is a real simple lens hood for a camcorder, using a lens hood increases saturation, reduces flaring and improves depth of field…

  • Grab a small plastic bottle with a top that is around the size of your camera’s UV filter
  • Work out how long you want your hood to be then cut off the base of the bottle with a knife and trim the top section to eliminate all but a few millimetres of the original top of the bottle
  • Spray it matte black to reduce internal reflections
  • Mount your UV filter in the cut off top and fix it with a few drops of super glue

Quick, simple and effective!
