Protect Your Gear
Now that you’ve made the investment in your camera, lens, and gear setup, you’ll want to make sure it’s protected for all the content creation you have in mind. There are many options for protecting your gear, so it’s important to pick quality products that make the most sense for you. Below we review five of the top ProMaster products to protect your gear!
You use your camera’s LCD screen to frame the perfect image, adjust capture settings, and review your shots while out on the road. Keep your view crystal clear with a quality screen protector that preserves touch screen functions. ProMaster’s screen protectors are easily applied through static adhesion, with no messy adhesives. Special multi-coatings make this shield highly resistant to water, oil, fingerprints, and nose prints. They’re constructed of hardened optical shatter-proof glass for maximum damage protection. We have a wide variety of screen protectors, there’s one to fit nearly any camera model.
Lenses can be one of the biggest investments a photographer makes to their camera. Protect that investment with the right lens pouch or case, made for the size of the lens. Whether you choose a soft, neoprene pouch that is resistant to dents, dings, and moisture, or a case that features thick, semi-rigid foam padding to absorb bumps and bruises, your lens will be protected when stored separately from your camera body. We have lens cases that will fit everything from a pancake lens to a telephoto.
While all lens filters provide some level of defense against damage, Protection Filters are a simple solution to protecting your front lens element from impact, water intrusion, and dust buildup. If you decide to pick up a protection filter to shield your expensive lens, then we recommend checking out our HGX Prime line of protection filters as they provide nearly 100% light transmission to your camera while retaining the ultra-hardened glass found throughout the entire HGX range.

Body caps are a necessity when storing your camera with the lens removed. Simply screw on the body cap that’s the right size for your camera and you’ll have peace of mind that your camera body is safe from dirt and dust.
One of the reasons memory cards degrade over time is improper storage. It's best practice to keep your memory cards clean, dry, and avoid bending your cards. Store them in a case when not in use and store them at room temperatures whenever possible. To learn more about maintaining your memory cards, check out this article.
