At the suggestion of a fellow Lugger, I did put 2 small strips of Scotch tape on the window. I still have flare. In a pinch what I've found to work is to frame up my shot and set the meter. Then I take my right hand over the top deck of the camera, cover the window with my index finger a bit and do my focusing with my left hand which is cradling my camera body. It is awkward as can be but it has saved me more times than I care to count. The same man who makes the Sling makes the shade you ask about. I, too, need to order one. His web site is http://www.konermann.net/sling.html Happy shooting.
