Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of imaging technology, and more specifically to a protective device for shooting equipment and shooting equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Existing panoramic camera lens protectors are made of silicone. These silicone protectors are prone to loosening, difficult to store, and easy to lose. To solve this problem, anti-loss straps are usually added to the silicone protectors, but this also causes the problem of obstructing the panoramic shooting field of view, thus bringing additional trouble during use.

[0003] Therefore, there is a need for a protective device for shooting equipment that is not easily loosened, easy to store, not easily lost, and does not obstruct the panoramic shooting field of view. Utility Model Content
