The Flexible Arm with Lens shade, Reflectors & Vignettes Kit from Flare Buster is a handy accessory that shields your camera lens from image-degrading stray light without the need for obnoxiously large lens hoods or shielding the lens with a hat or your hand. It stores in a very compact fashion and can universally shade all but the biggest of telephoto lenses quite effectively. The Flare Buster attaches to the standard hot shoe on a camera.
Included in the kit are three reflectors for bouncing white, gold or silver light onto the subject. This is especially useful for macro photography. Two vignetting shades can be used to cast a small amount of light exactly on the subject as needed. The reticulating arm will hold the shade in any position around the camera as needed, and an included 1/4"-20 tripod adapter screw will even facilitate putting the shade below the lens if conditions would warrant it.
