Ipad sun cover

Greetings;
I've tried a couple sun/glare shields but haven't been happy with them. Any recomendations on ones that work well?

Have you tried flat glare shields that attach to the screen or were you using hoods?

I use a Hoodman for my mini 4, and it also fits my mini 5.
Nice product.

I was using a hood, not sure how well overlay sreens work.

Which hoods were you using? What didn't you like about them?

I’ve tried both the anti glare screen film and then a hood on a mini 5. The screen film will mask fine details and it is difficult to judge focus. I abandoned it and now use a Pgytech hood. Much better.

If it weren't for the 2 pc Hoodman, I would have had to sell my MP2.
Admittedly it's a bit cumbersome, but it works fantastic.

That why I went for Moverio Glasses no hood on my iPad ever worked to my satisfaction.

Best one so far is the Pgytech, have tried lots but this beats all, cheers Len

I use a Ipad mini and have yet to find any type of hood that works well. They all only seem to work marginally at best so I go for the one that's easiest to put on and take off. They are better than nothing but don't expect to find one that works well if its just the typical 3 sided kind.

Hoodman is overpriced...look at the PGYTECH hoods for ipad. I have the one for 9.7" tablets and it's perfect. Easy on and off with no cumbersome straps as it uses silicone bands to hold it firmly in place. I use only the first stage and it gives me plenty of shade.
I also have a hoodman for my mini iPad. It's ok but the hand opening is not big enough so hard to reach edge of screen.
