Buteo Photo Gear Baghide, Green
The Buteo Photo Gear Baghide in green (camouflage) was developed by nature and wildlife photographers: extensively used, tested and adjusted where necessary. The baghide is designed to fit comfortably on your head, using a ring. Thanks to this ring, the baghide remains firmly in place, while a viewing window (with insect mesh) allows you to keep an eye on your surroundings. The baghide is the simple solution that is currently offered in various camouflage patterns. In addition, a lightweight version is offered in three camouflage patterns.
If you are often in the field, you will soon notice that birds and mammals are very shy of people. Camouflaging yourself and your gear with a baghide or a photo tent is then the best solution for successful wildlife photography. The basic idea is that the animals no longer see or recognise us as humans, and Therefore, do not feel threatened. With this baghide you are quickly and perfectly camouflaged and you photograph more effectively.
The advantage of taking your own tent or baghide is that you can use it quickly when an opportunity arises. This lightweight and compact baghide or camouflage coverall is easy to carry in a bag or backpack when you are out and about in your area, going further afield or travelling by plane.
It is useful to take a baghide stand with you when you go out, so that you can quickly take action in the field. If possible, use existing vegetation so that you blend in well with the environment. Sit against or under bushes or other vegetation. The fabric itself is made of strong polyester (150D) that lasts a long time. During steady rain or showers you will still stay dry thanks to the hydrostatic head of 2500 mm. Please note that the viewing window is not waterproof.
Imagine, during a walk you come across a beautiful spot or you see a few deer in the distance. At such moments it is nice to have a baghide at hand, to be able to camouflage yourself and your photo equipment quickly. For wildlife and nature photographers there is nothing like the feeling of taking beautiful shots of birds and wild animals, which makes the wait worth it in the end.
When using the baghide you will notice that it is coated black on the inside. The viewing window with an insect net gives you just enough view to survey the surroundings. The cloth is large enough to cover yourself and your tripod with camera/lens, and your photo backpack can be placed next to or under you. So you are completely camouflaged by the cloth, but you can move your head freely to keep an eye on the surroundings. So, if you are looking for a perfect, easy and lightweight solution that camouflages perfectly, is ready in seconds and always in the right camouflage print, then a baghide is the best option for you.
