Great for A9 users but what about us A7rii users

Surely Sony could incorporate that into the next A7rII Firmware update ?

Of course if Sony believed in giving these things in firmware updates!!!

No, since that would require a sensor for the camera knowing when the screen is tilted or not.

Light dims works much better, and more consistent. Cut around 1x1mm, sick dead center and done. Taking the tape is less than optimal and just doesn't work that well.

Thanks Charlie!
I wasted a half hour trying to get the tape just so and never got it quite right.

One minute with a slightly trimmed round Light Dim pasted in the middle of the sensor and it's perfect.

Check them out on Amazon, just search for Light Dims. They're little dark transparent stick ons that you can put over bright LED lights to dim them.
