Hoodman Laptop Hood

->> Anyone using this hood for outdoor viewing? If so, what are your thoughts. Nothing worse than trying to view a laptop on a bright sunny day.

->> It's my go to for most afternoon and early evening games due to it packing so small. I even use it to keep out the glare of the stadium lights at night games. Well worth the price. If I'm outdoors for a long day I use the Think Tank Pixel Sunscreen, doesn't travel as small, but far better for the brightest of bright sun.

->> I like the Think Tank, too. You put the entire laptop into the unit, where as your keyboard is still in the sun with the Hoodman. Could get hot.

->> Thanks for the input. I guess my only concern with the Think Tank was the size. The photo pits at Fenway Park are a bit small and can get cramped. That is why the Hoodman looked so inviting. But my main concern is glare. Looks like the Pixel Screen is the best choice.
