Hiding the logo of your camera. Worth it? 

suffering from success

Better idea wear a pair of headphones while out and about. Dont even need to be listening to anything people never bother me. Works like a charm

I used to have a Hassy about a decade ago; sorry, so extra or unwanted attention! BTW: Do you happen to be good looking? I'm kinda plain/sorta ugly - oh, and old😢. I'd actually like the attention.

Stealth wealth/Quite Luxury of Photographer

I disguised my Hasselblad X1dii six months ago for the same reasons, but I included placing electrical tape over the orange shutter, all the logos and even went so far as using silver tape to make the corners appear worn through the black coating. I still draw the same attention and get asked questions which I politely answer; I think the large lens gives it away. "Is that a Hasselblad?"

Sticky take will damage the logo / paint

Some photographers cover the logos on their camera bodies simply because the white text or logo on a black body is very high contrast and tends to draw the subject's eye. Now try convincing anyone to put tape over their little red dot.

I'm the only guy on Maui with a 907x. It's a scene every time I whip my camera out in public. I stay home mostly, and take pictures around the house. Didn't die in the fires, so greatful to be here.

Just get insurance?

It is internet.

One spot remaining: the lens cap

thinking of doing the same

Going to start driving my hellcat with the car cover on 😂

What a wasting time video content . Wasting time to make it and also wasting time for people to watch it. Whats that even mean..?! SO, what...? I have PhaseOne, Do I have to hide the logo because people might ask me questions. What a staffed up world we living in..!!

I did not ever have the feeling that the Hasselblad logo is drawing any attention. Here in Germany it seems that the brand is not that well-known, at least outside of the photographer bubble.

Dos not help, robbers knows that cameras with cover logos are an expensive ones :)

I love covering tech logos ... I like the gadgets not the logos 😂

I'd tape that big orange shutter button too

I’m surprised you have that problem. In my whole family, I think I’m the only one who knows what the “H” is.

Gaffers tape please. The residue from gores tape might harm . Love this camera. I have the 500 cm. Someday

The Hasselblad text across the camera strap kind of defeats the purpose of putting tape on the rest of the camera.

I have always used gaffers tape. It doesn't leave a sticky residue.

Fyi, gorilla tape is really strong. I usually use gaffers tape, comes off easier but strong enough to stay on.

Dude takes un-flexing to the next level

Do what Pentax does with their K-3 lll Monochrome and carefully paint the logo black. It looks elegant and stylish ✌️

I used gaffers tape. No need to shout out what it is. Same with the Red Dots. Low profile is always better.

Heh, thanks to DJI and Xiaomi, I just told those asking that Hasselblad and Leica are China brand and they are losing interest.

I am pretty sure that the anodised finish is damaged after a few months under that gorilla-tape.

If if give to pyschological peace of mind, do want you want to do. However guising the hasselblad logo, will not help prevent from be robbed or being stolen due to unique shape of the camera body and it the organge shutter button. Every thieve will recognize the camera. However I do wish this expersive camera body would have similar security measuera as every smartphone has. Hasselblad did do a very very bad job in this regard. As a hasselblad enthusias I dislike that you modded your camera.

Definitely not my way, looks terrible

Like it 🙏

Dislike Absolutely wasting people time with this kind of video. Curiosity is the best way to make connections and get knowledge. If you worry to someone stole it then why you are in street?? Stay at home, close doors and windows. Dislike

oh please. What next
