I've been happy to buy a camera with a huge LCD screen and, this time, I chose a good quality one, accepted to pay the price for it.
BUT I've been pissed off yesterday to see that this fg screen is just a pure bst and totally useless when you try to use the camera on a bright shiny day!
I mean, you know the problem, there's so much light outside that the LCD screen just appears black... totally black!!!

What the hell do they think about when they design their new products??
Are we supposed to use them only when the sky is cloudly?
Crap... I can't believe that.
My first camera was the lowest price I found but I never had that stupid problem with it, I was quite happy with the LCD screen, in any situation...

Has any of you ever experimented that frustration?
Or has a way to get rid of that problem?
I don't know, something like a device we could put on the screen to avoid light reflects, you know, like for the computer screens, for example?
Any idea?
