|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board tips for shooting with a mask on Chris Machian, Photographer, Assistant omaha | NE | USA | Posted: 5:03 PM on 04.14.20 ->> First, how does one shoot with a mask and not have their camera eyepiece fog up?  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

If it's a paper mask, it's got a wire that will do that. If it's a homemade or cloth mask, you could use a twist-tie from a grocery store and stitch it in with needle and thread. It won't be a perfect solution, but it should reduce the amount of breath that gets redirected upward to your eyes.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

It took me about 10 minutes to get used to the minimal view distortion, but I can breath a lot better and do not get that moist mask thing. I have been cleaning the inside with a disinfecting wipe, then drying it with a paper towel so it does not streak. And my ears do not get wrecked either!  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I would say that weather conditions factor in how much it fogs up. Since the heat of summer, I haven't had many issues.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?
