3D Camo Poncho

3D Camo Poncho

Love it!! Poncho does Exactly what it s supposed to do. Fits well and changes my outline to make me less conspicuous as a human.

Poncho is great, but minus one star for busted drawstring adjuster

I have purchased two of these ponchos, giving one of them away to a birder friend. I am 5'10" and the poncho comes down to about mid-shin when standing, which I think is a good length. The poncho is effective camo for bird photography. I have been able to get very close to reclusive birds (e.g., brown thrasher, hermit thrush) using the poncho. It is not, of course, a cloak of invisibility. You must also exercise strict movement discipline for the poncho to be effective. I suppose that is the advantage of a blind over such a poncho -- you can move around inside a blind! I will note that the second poncho that I purchased had a busted plastic adjuster ball on the drawstring for the hood. Fortunately, I was able to replace it with another adjuster that I happened to have. In any case, Tragopan should either inspect the product more carefully before shipping or package it better so as to protect the adjuster from being crushed.

Looking forward to using it!

Haven't had a chance to deploy yet been busy photographing tigers in India. I do hope you guys come out with a camshield for the Olympus 150-400 f4.5 TC1.25 Pro lens.
