 A Problem with Moisture (H-CAPD on Nikon D3S) August 3, 2010
Bob G

The Hoodman shield has its merits: it is inexpensive, it does indeed protect the LCD, and it attaches and removes easily. But in my use of it I have encountered what to me is a serious problem. If I am using my camera's viewfinder (rather than working with Live View), and if the weather is cool, then moisture from my breath condenses between the shield and the LCD. The moisture is opaque, and it persists for minutes, reducing the usefulness of the LCD --- for photo review or whatever. I have the problem when the air temperature is at or below the low 60's. I have not used the Hoodman on a very cold day, but I assume that in air at or below 32 degrees the moisture would freeze or at least persist for longer still. For whatever it's worth, I'll add that I have replaced the Hoodman shield with a Giottos Aegis, and so far with the Giottos the moisture problem has not recurred. The Giottos does not snap into place over the LCD as the Hoodman does. Instead it attaches with an adhesive, and the adhesive appears to have the side-benefit of working as a seal.
 Fits perfectly June 17, 2010

Hi all.
The Hoodman hood cap fits perfectly, can be removed and replaced easily and completly protects the LCD. In short, it performs as advertised.

 Good Protection, Soft Plastic May 20, 2010
R. Williams
This cap snaps on firmly, in fact it's a bit difficult to pry off, which is probably a good thing. It provides good protection for the main LCD but not the smaller one below it. The main problem I have with this product is that the plastic appears to be quite soft and is easily scratched simply by cleaning dust off of it. This makes it difficult to see through if the ambient light reflects off the scratches at the right angle. In summary, it does the job, but you'll probably end up replacing it fairly often.
Does the job April 18, 2010
Abe (San Francisco Bay Area, CA United States)
This protective cover does the job intended, but the reasons I don't give it five stars is 1) it scratches easily, and 2) it allows dust to get inside the space between the cover and the camera, requiring regular cleanings (which easily scratches the cover). Having said that, I recommend buying one of these since it to better to have a protected camera than not.
