lcd screen sun shield free sample
"I have gone through a number of sun shades in the last 8 years or so and they have all been flimsy junk. This ColourTree sail has been a revelation. It is a very sturdy and well made product. The fabric is light but tough. The cleats are similar to sail cleats and will never fail. A wire cable runs along the edge to absorb stresses that would tear other sails. Great product. I would buy again and recommend."
So, now it does. I have only had a few mins in the sun to test it out but it certainly makes it much easier to use. I"ll test it for awhile and decide if I need to increase the size of the shield to better cover the screen. In which case you will see an update here.
For me to snap it on I first slid the right side in, then snapped the left side in. I then slid the cover down another 1cm or so to fit it over the screen. The lcd screen still moves freely except it no longer sits flush against the camera. It sticks out about 7mm. Also the menu and option buttons are just slightly covered. Not enough to brother myself. Just so you know if case you think there was a printing mistake.
This was specifically designed to fit around the lcd screen of the NEX-5. Which pulls out and rotates up and down. If you need this for a different model you"ll have to look at the stl file and see if it will fit. If your still not sure print just the clip on part and then stop the print and try it out.

Research has proven time and time again that sun is good for the soul, but not the skin. Dermatologists around the world continue to stress the importance of daily protection against ultraviolet (UV) rays. Sunglasses, wide-brimmed hats, and broad-spectrum sunscreens are common for outdoor activities, but recent science suggests that we may need to be similarly cautious indoors.
The idea of wearing an SPF product while sitting in the house on a rainy day may seem a bit strange, but the sun is not the only source of skin damage. Read on to explore how light bulbs and computer screens could be the newest threat to skin health.
Computer screens, smartphones, TVs, video game consoles, LED light bulbs, and even fluorescent signs all expose us to blue light. We do not escape it outdoors either. In fact, sunlight is the main source of blue light. This high-energy light emitted by the sun scatters in Earth"s atmosphere, giving us our beautiful blue skies. But how dangerous is this light in indoor doses?
Some reports suggest that Americans spend a significant portion of their time awake, 9 hours or more, interacting with screen-based media each day. And you may have heard that too much blue light can have adverse effects on sleep—but what does it do to the skin? Although we don"t know the full answer to this question just yet, there are current findings that warrant attention.
We know that the artificial blue light that comes from screens and LEDs stimulates skin to produce more pigment through a process called melanogenesis. Melanogenesis can cause or worsen melasma, a condition characterized by patches of brown discoloration on the face, most commonly along the cheeks, forehead, and jawbones. It is more common in women and in those with naturally brown complexions.
One would think that eyes are particularly vulnerable to this type of energy. According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, blue light does not lead to eye disease, but long hours in front of a screen can result in dry or watery eyes, blurry vision, and headache.
You might also find it interesting to know that Dermatologists sometimes use blue light in short bursts (not the hours we sit in front of a screen) to treat certain inflammatory conditions, such as acne.
One way to benefit our skin health is to reduce the amount of time we expose ourselves to computers, cell phones, and video games. Much like seeking shade from strong UV rays, taking a break from screens may prove to be a benefit to our complexion. It could also help to invest in screen filters that cut down on HEV. Or, you could activate night mode on your devices so the screens give off less blue light.
Also, applying mineral-based sunscreens with titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and iron oxides provides additional protection, even from overhead LED and fluorescent lighting. These mineral ingredients are effective at deflecting some of the rays away from the skin"s surface. For optimal results, apply a broad-spectrum product with an SPF of 30+ every day.
So, as farfetched as it may seem, there is science to suggest that light from screens can cause damage and that you should use daily sunscreen, indoors and out. This way, no matter where you find yourself—out in the sun, in front of screens, or under bright lights—you know that you are protecting your skin.
Dr. Mona Gohara is a Connecticut-based Dermatologist and associate professor of Dermatology at Yale School of Medicine. She has a particular interest in skin cancer prevention and treatment for skin of color. Dr. Gohara spends a lot of time outdoors with her husband, son, and two dogs, Coco and Cleo. They all wear sunscreen.
Most modern TVs have glossy screens, which act like a mirror for any light source in a room (from windows to lamps). Some TVs, including many older models, have more matte screens, which don"t show the same mirror-like reflections. Ambient light still adversely affects matte screen TVs though. Instead of bouncing the light right back at you, a matte finish spreads that light energy across the whole screen. Reflections are lessened, but black level gets brighter, so they look more washed out overall.
So no matter what TV you have, if there"s a light in your room that can "see" the TV screen, you"ll be able to see it too, and it will affect picture quality.
Another option is to mount the TV on a wall mount that pivots, tilts, or both. So when you"re getting the reflection, you can move the TV slightly so the reflection is reflected elsewhere (and you can"t see it). Several companies make wall mounts that do this. A few things to keep in mind. Most LCDs look worse off axis (or off center). If you pivot these, you"ll be viewing them off-axis and picture quality might suffer.
If you have a lot of windows, you"re fighting the sun, and your TV isn"t going to win. Sure, today"s brightest LCDs are plenty watchable in many bright environments, but you aren"t getting the best picture quality with that much light in the room.
Motorized sun screens, either inside or out, are a huge help in more ways than one. I live in Southern California, and the west side of my house bakes all afternoon long. I put in some exterior sun shades and, not to sound like a testimonial, my house is now way cooler, temperature-wise anyway. It"s also darker inside, with far less direct light and therefore, fewer reflections.
