Hi Everyone: For 50 years I have looking thru the viewfinder of numerous SLRs and DSLRs. When I wear my polarized sunglasses, the picture gets a little darker. Just bought a Sony A6000 with an EVF. Even with the brightness control set to brightest, the picture is very very dark. Had to return the camera since much of my shooting here in Florida is out on a boat or in bright sun where I always wear polarized sunglasses (better to see the fish with!). Is this with all EVFs? Anyone have this same experience? Thanks Bob P.S. Have a great Thanksgiving. As citizens of the US, we have much to be thankful for!

I think you'll always have problems with polarized sunglasses. I can't drive with them because they'll black out most of any displays on the dashboard with plastic lenses or covers, including the Radio Tuner. These plastics tend to be polarized themselves already. But yes, polarized sunglasses are a no no for EVF and Rear Screen focusing and viewing of information. Sunlight is problematic as well.
