Today I will briefly unbox a camera protective film for you, which is a 3M film from Mihondo. A while ago, we bought a SONY FX3 for filming. For the safety of this Guisensen camera, we also bought a rabbit cage to strengthen the protection of its body. Although all the surroundings of the fuselage have been taken care of, the fuselage will inevitably be rubbed when in use. For example, when placing it on the table or changing the camera position, it must be used with caution. We are afraid that if we don’t pay attention, we will leave traces on this hundreds of thousands of camera body. In order to avoid this regret, we decided to adopt the same coating method as that of mobile phones to protect the fuselage. However, this camera coating is not the same as the mobile phone coating…:
Mihondo camera protector unboxing
The contents are very similar to the usual mobile phone protectors we buy, including protectors, film application tools, clips, and instructions:
For those who are using it for the first time, it is strongly recommended to read the manual. There are also official video tutorials that you can watch:
This time we started with deep gray + annual skin texture + matrix skin:
Each part has been cut well and can be easily attached according to the official instructions:
Very considerately, a film application kit and a small clip are included:
The 2080 series of 3M special adhesive films for car stickers are used, which have the characteristics of leaving no glue, can be pasted repeatedly, no bubbles, and anti-scratch protection. However, I personally recommend that you check the stickiness of the glue after a year. After all, it is difficult to know whether the glue will remain on the body due to long-term use or exposure to the sun outdoors. It is better to confirm this regularly:

Before starting to paste, it is recommended that you use a blower to blow off the dust on the body:
Then use the included dust stickers to further ensure that the body is dust-free:
Don’t be nervous if you feel the sticker is crooked during the application process. You can gently peel it off and continue applying it. This protective sticker has the characteristics of being able to be pasted repeatedly:
When you feel that the position is almost right, smooth the protective patch with your hands to make the protective patch smoother:
This protector is also quite good at the corners. It can be applied smoothly along the position of the camera without any protruding feeling. However, I personally feel that it still has a tolerance of a few mm (or my personal skills are not good), so when applying it to corners like this, a little bit of the body will still be exposed:
Some parts of the skin need to be softened with a hair dryer (the picture is a schematic) so that it will fit better:

After the entire post is completed, there are still some preparations left. If you feel that the post does not look good, you can use these preparations to remedy it:
I don’t think I’m a careful person, so I just posted it…as long as you can read it XD
After the whole thing is pasted on, it’s hard to tell that it’s a fuselage that’s been pasted with a protective sticker, but there’s still a flaw in the application method…
I have to say that although I personally feel that there is a tolerance difference of mm, the hole position is still very accurate and close to perfect:
The touch of the skin is very close to that of the camera itself, but due to the material, it is relatively slippery compared to the original skin. If you don’t like the slipperiness of the grip, it is recommended that the skin on the grip is not attached:
With this color and this material, I believe you wouldn’t be able to tell that this is a body with a protective sticker even if I don’t tell you:
The fuselage has cut-out protective stickers from top to bottom, from inside to outside, and fits perfectly on the fuselage:
You can even stick it on the turntable, but the whole feel will disappear after sticking it, so I will choose to remove it here:
The top of the fuselage is also completely protected with protective stickers:|
Looking at this precise hole position, it reminds me of the painful process of applying Ironman tape…:
The memory card slot, HDMI slot, and LCD screen can all be flipped out smoothly without being stuck by the protective sticker:
This Mihondo camera protector supports mostly mirrorless models that have been launched in recent years. For older SLR models, there may be very few or even no models. After all, this thing was only launched in the past few years. In addition to body protective stickers, there are actually protective stickers that can be applied to camera-related peripherals such as lenses, battery grips, etc. However, these are mainly products produced in recent years…
It’s worth mentioning that the colors we unboxed today are actually just the tip of the iceberg. You can go online to check out the different color combinations, there are so many that you’ll find them cool! Moreover, in addition to the brand Meihontang, there are many brands that also make this type of protective patch products. Those in need can go online to find products that suit your needs!
