Has anyone here tried the monitor hood that's for sale in the DJI Store? I was wondering how well it actually works. I have an iPhone 8 Plus and can't see the screen very well in bright sunlight and need something to shield the sunlight.

I've bough a boxed hood on Ax. Very happy with it but with some limitations.

My S9+ can blast the screen brightness to 11 and adjust the brightness of the image according to the light sensor. When the light sensor is shaded by the hood the additional brightness is not used (despite filling the automatic light scale) and image brightness alteration doesn't take place, thus partly defying the concept.
I think it's something to consider before any hood purchase.

I designed this working quite well but only for iPhone 6s print with 3D printer put some velcro on the bottom to help from moving

I usually try to find a shady spot to stand (under a tree or so).
That usually blocks me from getting in the frame as well

I would suggest you use this product as I myself have bought it and I am completely satisfied with it. I would recommend it to v=everyone who has a problem viewing phone in bright sunlight. I am a student and was looking for a writing service that could help me with my writing tasks and my friend suggest to check out https://cheapessayswritingservice.com/buy-dissertation-online/ saying that their services are very good. I would like to ask if anyone here has used there services before who could give me some suggestions as to if I should choose them or not.

Take a look on YT at one of Mr. Ken's videos. He makes one out of cardboard. Saves you 25 quid from buying of DJI who should have, by now, fixed that screen bug
