    Brilliant! OMG! Thank you so much for this video! I have literally spent WAAAY too much time looking up accessories for an already expensive camera! To the thumb grip, the soft release button, the UV filters, the Square Hood MK II...and the list goes on!!! UG. Finding your video has saved me a lot of money. I live in the mountains and winter is brutal for a camera shooting landscapes and wild life. Thank you! I will hit whatever button you want now! haha. Cheers! :)

  • @sangmanlee
    @sangmanlee 3 роки тому +2

    Thanks a million Ben! I was thinking about using another filter like a pro mist so I think I'll get the squarehood adapter ring since it's a bit more compact than others and place the filter just behind the nisi one :D

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому +1

      Hope it works out! You may have to be careful of vignette caused by the Nisi hood, as you're pushing it further away from the lens it may start creeping into frame. Worth a go though!

    Great little video. I just ordered Nisi UHD UV Filter Hood for a Fujifilm X100f. I've tried in vain to purchase the x100v but the wait time is possibly months. I wound up purchasing the x100f in like-new condition. I considered the x-e4 but was set on having a leaf shutter. Glad I found your video.🙂

  • @stanrose1518
    @stanrose1518 2 роки тому +3

    How well does this round/flatter hood block against flare compared to the square-design models? Think I understand that the x100v lens is less susceptible to flare than longer lenses with greater number of elements, so maybe not of overriding practical concern, but logically seems the square design would be more effective.

  • @citizenwolf8720
    @citizenwolf8720 3 роки тому +1

    Yep, I got one of these a few months ago exactly because the lens hood could still fit on the front. It's excellent.

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому +1

      Compared to the other options it's almost worth calling the lens cap fitting a "feature" 🤣

    I have been searching for a lens hood for my V and soon ( I hope) my VI. Got the JJC - seems plain and Haoge square - fustrated with the alignment. Both seems lacking. This seems to be a straight forward, quality design. I am going to order one right now. Thanks so much.

  • @andreamaci9411
    @andreamaci9411 5 місяців тому

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому

      Thanks Moya, it's a great filter isn't it! I'm am looking at options for a grip, but I'd like to get a full day of shooting with it first to see if I really need one - I've not had much chance to yet. Or maybe one of the hot shoe "film winder" grips. We'll see!

  • @johnvienna3422
    @johnvienna3422 2 роки тому +1

    Fits the X70 too. And both black and silver exactly match the cameras. And the filter glass is closer to the lens, so any dirt is less visible in the shot. And it's cheaper. And it's just one item instead of three. And it's waaaay more compact. And lighter. And the chamfer makes it easier to slip the camera in your bag or pocket. And it doesn't fall off like the Fuji hood. And the Fuji lens cap still fits, not that you'll ever need it again. Superior in every conceivable way. Just in case anyone is still in any doubt...

    • @freedom3033
      @freedom3033 Рік тому

  • @dcreano
    @dcreano 3 роки тому +1

    Great suggestion. I bought both the Fuji and the JJC lens hoods and they both got dented really easily. I wish I had gone with this option as I would have saved the cost of a UV filter and it looks great ..

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому +1

      It's a great all-in-one option for sure! It really suits the camera and is a no-brainer if you want to keep using the lens cap 👌

  • @AlexOuiCestMoi

  • @SideshowBob44

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому +1

      Same here, looking at the images you’d never know there was a filter on there! I’ve tried quite a few backlit shots just to see if there’s much flaring - nothing different to the bare lens 👌

  • @marktoro2380

    I just bought my Fuji x100v today and I was looking for the right lens hood and they had the black lens Hood combination filter by Nisi, and it was black the same as the camera I was buying and it looks wonderful and I know it's going to do a great job I was so glad to find your video while I was at the camera counter buying this camera and it sold the deal for me with this lens Hood solution so... thank you!

  • @UniversalBrow09
    @UniversalBrow09 3 роки тому +3

    Bought the Nisi for my (black) x100v based upon this exact video, and I must say this is my absolute favorite. I also have the Square Hood (on my x100f currently), the Fuji+B+W setup, and a JJC hood. The Nisi is superior for several reasons, the main reason for me being that it’s great quality while keeping the camera as compact as possible. It also just looks great… clean and streamlined. Love that you can still use the factory Fuji cover too.

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому +1

      Exactly why I bought it! I've since done videos on other filter/hood options, but the design of the NiSi is by far my favourite 👌 glad you like it, and thanks for watching!

  • @jeanraltigue1898
    @jeanraltigue1898 2 роки тому

    Interesting hood/filter right there. I will check that out.

    • @stanrose1518
      @stanrose1518 2 роки тому +1

      Isn’t yours a different hood than one reviewed? It’s much flatter (not a square hood), apparently reason cap can fit. Also, ad says for earlier x100 models, doesn’t list the V.

    • @JoeLopez
      @JoeLopez 2 роки тому

      @@stanrose1518 Haoge LH-X49B is for X100-X100T and allows the OEM cap to fit. My hood is leftover from my T.
      Haoge LH-X51 is the same hood specific for the X100V and allows the OEM cap to fit. Since I don't use the cap on my V with a hood, I didn't bother to upgrade :)
      I did end up buying the NiSi for my V last March, the glass ended up falling out after 2 weeks :(

    Fun part is I got my X100T 3 longtime ago and got a Round Lenscap with Filter and Ring for less lens flare because the filter is under the hood not in the front of it. and it's for JCC plus the lens cap is fitting perfect on it. :D

  • @michaeljdauben

      If you put it on the X100F and want to use the original lens cap you can order a replacement lens cap for the X100V from B&H and put that on the Nisi filter. The F lens cap is smaller so it won't fit. I think the replacement V lens cap was around $15.

  • @walcottrulez

  • @pavelperina7629
    @pavelperina7629 3 роки тому

    Good, sadly I bought separate circular lens hood, good quality (i believe) uv filter and 46mm lens cap before I found this option.
    Well ... that solution has two minor advantage and one major disadvantage.
    Lens hood seems to block some sun or rain and it protects uv filter against mechanical damage so it can be used without lens cap which is faster and more comfortable.
    Disadvantage is obviously size which is main reason why to get X100V so it is against its design and purpose.
    PS: yeah, we may argue how UV filter adds to lens flare, but bigger problem is using zoom lens with 17 elements (no matter if it's pro-grade with some nano-coating) compared to 7-8 elements prime lens.

  • @ofwolfanddan
    @ofwolfanddan 3 роки тому

    Where does the filter glass sit within the hood? It appears to be at the front, in which case its effectiveness as a lens hood is somewhat compromised. Good for weather sealing, but less effective at keeping out unwanted light.

    Thanks for your videos, they are very helpful. I went through the comments so I wouldn't repeat myself, but I don't think anyone raised the same point. I ordered this product after seeing this video and just received it. It looks great, however, unlike you said, the cap doesn't fit once the hood is on, which is quite disappointing so I will be returning it.

    • @FamauMedia

    Hi there, thanks for this review! I took the plunge and ordered the filter, since it seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. Unfortunately however, the filter is not compatible with the lens caps of the previous models like my X100F. The lens cap is a little bit too small to fit. Just thought I'd let you know. I'm going to send mine back...

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому +1

      Oh that's unfortunate! The X100V is the only one I've owned so I hadn't realised the caps were different sizes - I guess it may just be from the lens update? Hope your return goes well though!

    Note that as of summer 2021, Hoage makes a similar product (adapter-filter combined unit) but with a built-in hood. In the Nisi model, the filter is exposed to extraneous light because it is at the very front of the design. In the Hoage unit, the filter is recessed without adding too much to the size of the lens.

    THANK YOU!!! Just what I was looking for! I will buy another cheap filter adapter from JJC for my 10-stop ND filter, but most of the time the camera can be weather-sealed with this without adding much bulk. (Like you, I hate the idea of adding an extra layer of glass into the optical path, but want to be able to take this camera with me literally everywhere, in all kinds of weather, so a UV filter is a must.)

    • @FamauMedia
      @FamauMedia  3 роки тому

      It's hard to say without comparing it side-by-side with another more conventional hood unfortunately, I may have to buy a cheap one sometime to do some tests! It should still offer some protection from light coming in from the side as the front of the filter curves inward, reducing the field of view slightly - if that makes sense. Honestly though, I can't say much without comparing it to other hoods in the same scenario 💁‍♂️

      Is that the round one, similar shape to the Nisi? I did see that one a few days ago, I just really don't think it matches the look of the camera anywhere near as well as the Nisi does (because having a good looking camera is far more important than how the camera performs 🤣)

      Thanks Ken! I've actually been in talks with Nisi and they may well be using this video 🤓 Unfortunately here in N Wales we've not had much sunshine since I've had the filter (not unusual here...), but the rare occasions I have shot in bright sunlight it does seem to narrow down the intake a bit. Saying that, I also love shooting backlit - but a hood's always a nice addition for protection if nothing else!

    • @godsakes
      @godsakes 3 роки тому

      I'd assume it's better as a custom x100 filter/protector than as a hood... ultimately there is nothing blocking the light from hitting the front glass so surely you'd get flaring from that before even thinking about whether or not the design blocks flare to the actual lens

    Thanks for making this video! I was just looking at this as a solution for my X100V and your video came at the perfect time :). I will also have to disagree about the use of protection filters. I'd dropped my Nikon F with my favourite lens on it last month. I'd caught the strap before it hit the ground so only the front of the lens smashed into the concrete. The protection filter took all of the energy and the lens is compeltely fine, no marks on the front element and event the filter threads are in perfect conditon. The Nikon F is quite a dense camera made mostly of brass so there was definitely a lot of energy going into that fall. I'll never not use them on my lenses because any slight loss in image quality far outweighs any damage to all my precious glass. Then again I mainly shoot film so having insane sharpness doesnt matter much ;). Thanks again for the video!!

    • @FamauMedia

      You're welcome! UV filters are a funny subject at times - I agree in your case they're probably a good thing to have, but in my case all my kit is insured anyway if anything did go wrong 🤷‍♂️ That said, the X100V isn't included in that as I won't be using it for any paid work, and my use of this filter is primarily just for shooting in rainy/dusty conditions, in which case it does the job perfectly 🤓

    I bought this Nisi hood after watching your video. Unfortunately, while it is a clever design, I had a bad experience with it. Just 2 days after I installed it, with the camera being well cared for, never dropped or knocked about, the glass filter separated from the hood. Not sure if I got a defective unit or not but it seems like the glass might only be glued to the filter and that is the weak point in the design and so I am not taking a chance on getting another one.

    The only issue I have with this lens hood is that the filter is so close to the front it won’t prevent me touching the glass with my fingers. The filter is practically flush with the hood. I would also have fear of the uv being damaged then needing to send the whole thing in or buy a new one.
