a brand of camera and a model would help ;)

THEY ARE ALL DIFFERENT

I've seen people put a 2x plastic magnifier(for photos or to read when your eyes get old ) over the LCD with velcro or a homemade harness... those cost $2 if they will fit

that will shade it AND magnify in 1
Thanks for that. I have just tried this with an old $2 slide viewer and it works perfectly.
I removed the translucent screen and I can now hold it over the LCD to check on settings etc.
I think it would be rather inconvenient to have this viewer fitted over the LCD. This idea suits me. Many thanks,
Ron
