What do people prefer as their alternative to the old horseblanket? I'm looking for a new focusing bag/hood type thing to replace an inexpensive thing I got on ebay that has an elastic band on one end and a slit for the hand to come through with a loupe. It works ok in my studio, but out in the field it creates several problems - it isn't dark enough inside (the fabric isn't heavy enough) and the slit for you to stick your hand through is too big so it lets in too much light and causes glare on the ground glass.
I've looked at the BTZS hood and a competitor who also sells on Ebay - the competitor's hood is silver on the outside, not beige, but that's about the only real difference I can see. Has anyone bought either of these and do they have a preference?
