Clear lens changing bag source
We all use those clear plastic bags for changing the lens on our Dslrs in
order to avoid dust on the sensors when in hostile environments, but anyone know of a good brand for something that is just the right size??? Thanks, DP |

Not only have I never done that, I've never *heard* of that. What "we" is it that "all" does this? (DSLR since 2003) |

(DSLR since 2003) Actually, I've used my old black changing bag to change lenses once with my DSLR, when I was in the desert on a fairly windy day. Otherwise, I've never heard of what Mr. Smith contends we all do. -- Skip Middleton www.shadowcatcherimagery.com www.pbase.com/skipm |

Wouldn't the bag fill up with the dust which is on the outside of the lens? Then again, I've never had to change my lens in a sand storm. On a typical windy day at the beach I just turn my back to the wind. |

You were the one that said "we all". So far nobody has even heard of what you say "we all" do. But "we all" did not say that nobody does it, just that "we all" don't. Ok (insert whatever) ? -- John Bean |

I've never done it, nor know of anyone who does, nor heard of it either. And I have photographed in dusty environments, and I rarely have dust issues. For example, I've only had to clean one sensor on two DSLRs this year, and that was while on safari in Africa where it was fairly dusty (and I changed lenses/teleconverters often). And I quickly blew off the dust spot--took about a minute. Roger Photos at: http://www.clarkvision.com |
