I can't vouch for it, but something like the CaseMate HD anti-glare screen protector wouldn't be hard to add to handle the glare, and for $15 versus a device price of $800, seems like a smart accessory to purchase.

Ethan,
Great review.
Am I understanding you right that all of your zooming and focusing was being done manually? The monitor does not have a way to access a cameras remote zoom/auto focus features, correct?
