About Buteo Photo Gear

Buteo Photo Gear® is a photo hide and camouflage brand founded by nature and wildlife photographer Jürgen Sloots. The name comes from Buteo, the scientific genus name for the buzzard, his favourite bird of prey. For more than 15 years we have designed, produced and sold photo hides, camouflage and accessories for photographers who want to get closer to wildlife without disturbing it.

We are nature and wildlife photographers ourselves, and we test our products frequently in the field, together with our customers, our ambassadors and the other nature and wildlife photographers we collaborate with. Our goal is simple: to design and build products that help you capture the photo you have always dreamed of.

Behind the brand is a fully equipped operation: more than 5,000 photography-related products in stock in our 3,200 m2 warehouse, our own technical service, a 360-degree photo studio, and a large showroom where you can see and test the products yourself.
