Build Your Own Monitor Hood

Monitor hoods are very handy if you are trying to solve uniformity issues, such as brightness/colour variances with your monitor coming from uneven ambient light. Read more on this in the article below.

Why You Need a Monitor Hood

How a monitor hood can solve uniformity issues, such as brightness/colour variances, with your colour accurate monitor.

If you're the DIY type, there is a good article here about making your own monitor hood.

We personally think these days you're mostly much better off buying an after-market PCHood monitor hood. It will only cost a little more than the DIY option, and the fit and finish will be far superior.

The PCHood is available in two sizes, suitable to fit all monitors ranging from 15 - 36 inches.

 
 
 

Thank you for your email. Actually I am a returning customer and a very satisfied customer into the bargain. This time I bought an Epson P800 - originally I bought an Epson 3880 from you and have been very satisfied with it. But having seen the Luminous Landscape videos promoting the P800 I simply had to have one. So I have sold the 3880 and upgraded. It arrived today... you really are efficient - I only ordered it yesterday!

So, thank you for efficient, friendly and excellent service - I teach photography at the local University of the Third age and refer my students to you with every confidence they will be well treated.
