Light, composition, shooting technique matter to the end quality most. -Pekka

Im not sure why claybuster suggested you take the rubber off (maybe he was joking) but good luck getting it back on I wasn't joking about taking it off,I"ve had mine off and on a few times. Just put it back on the way you took it off. MY GEAR

Has anyone else ever taken it off and put it back on? I have no trouble at all getting mine back on! MY GEAR
