5.0 out of 5 stars Useful for photography, July 31, 2008

This really does set up in seconds. Taking it down is almost as quick. I use it for photographing wildlife so I put my gear on the ground, pop it open and set it over the gear, get inside and pin it down. I feel that the less I'm seen, the better. The only complaint is the cheesy carry handles. I cart my gear in a backback and the handles just won't do. I attached a nice padded strap which I can adjust to slide over my shoulder or sling across my chest. It's much easier to carry now. I even put a collapsible chair in the pack too!

3.0 out of 5 stars Lightweight and Small, February 25, 2011

I purchased this blind for my nature photography. My goal was to have a tripod, 400mm lens, camera, and a chair inside the blind for concealed shooting.

The blind is lightweight and can be carried easily. The shoulder straps for putting it on your back are nice, but preclude a backpack for camera items. It can be attached to another backpack but the whole thing is a little awkward for hiking to a good spot in the woods as it is rather wide, even when folded up.

Set up is very easy and takes just seconds.

The blind's light weight works against it in any kind of breeze. Even with 8 stakes and rocks in the four corners, it is unsteady in a breeze. With $10,000 worth of camera equipment inside, even on a tripod, I was too nervous to keep it up unless the air is almost still.

The blind is dark inside and the black walls are great for keeping any motion inside undetected. The swaying in the breeze of the whole unit, however, can spook some creatures.

I will try later to set this up in an area sheltered from breezes to see if it can fill my need. To be sheltered and still have an unobstructed view for the camera will be the big challenge.

I got my first from ameristep a few years ago - simple to use, lightweight, plenty of room for me and my gear and huge windows. I left it in the same spot for the last 4 years in horrible conditions and only a couple of the zippers stick a little. I have since bought 3 more and have used them for the least expensive, most durable ground blinds i have used. Killed 3 shooter bucks in less than one hour with none of them having a clue where the shots have come from and 2 were less than 50 yards. Used it this year for the first time with my Buck Commander Crossbow and my Winchester shooting stick from an over sized folding chair and only had to "sit up" to easily shoot out of the front and left windows... perfect weight, perfect size. Little tighter when taking my daughter with me but certainly usable. Excellent buy!
