Hi everyone,

I've had my M8.2 for about a month now, having a lot of fun with it. Over the past few days I've come across a focus problem where I'm trying to focus on an object in the vicinity of strong back-lighting (even if I'm not pointing the camera anywhere near the light source) and I can't see anything through the focusing patch. The first time it happened I was stumped as to what the problem was. I think I've found the solution though:

Has anyone had this focusing problem and have you used one of these 'Shades'? Does it affect focusing visibility in low light situations?

I just found this thread but I don't think this is the solution I'm looking for:
