| Re: Photography from chair hides
Hi,
I bought the two man chair hide as used by Simon King a few months ago.
I wouldn't really call it big enough for two large people but its perfect for one person along with plenty of gear.
It's really easy to carry, it comes in a bag designed like a ruck sack, it takes only a few minutes to set up and take down and with a bit of thought when siting it, it really works.
With regards to it's stability, I had a few extra loops sewn onto the skirt of the hide. I also found the pegs that are supplied to be totally inadequate and made some longer and heavier ones which I push in with my feet.
These few simple alterations improved its stability enormously and there is very little movement when you shift your position inside.
Apart from this it is very well designed, there are facilities to photograph from not just the front but from either side and it is very comfortable to use.
A flask of tea, a few sarnies and it will keep you quiet for hours. |
