Coralline's questions about the Astra reminded me
of something that I've been meaning to ask. Sometimes when I'm bringing down the
sun for a sight, I'll get a nasty blast of unfiltered sun in my eye. It seems to
be coming off the bottom of the index shades, but it's not consistent so I guess
it depends on the angle of the sun when I'm moving the index arm.
Anyone else have the same problem, and if so what
solution have you come up with for it? I've thought about maybe using dulling
spray on the shades (or maybe even re-painting the metal parts with
non-reflective black), but I'll wait until I get some feedback from the group
before doing anything drastic like that.
