That is brilliant for tightwads like me.
In the artist and craft shops you can now purchase A4 sheets of material.
It looks like rubber or sponge type rubber but is very firm and about 1.5 - 2.0 mm thick.
Various colours, black or very dark grey among them. I reckon that would be ideal for a lens hood and being slightly elastic would stay in place better, without recourse to sellotape. And possibly do away with the tabs.
I will try it when the shops open tomorrow and report back.
Ha! I could even start a business. :o:o:o
I downloaded one for the nifty 50 and it fits like a glove.
May I put the Link on to another photographic board I use? Please, please, pretty please.
You can buy sheets of white carbon? paper, and trace through that onto dark card or whatever. It is like crayon when transferred and needs a fine point for copying. Dressmaking shops would have that.
