Hey guys, just picked up a really nice Batman forever.
So far i'm loving it, but the dmd glare is awful. Until now I've only had sys11's so it wasn't really a big deal, but on a pin as dark as BF it's driving me nuts.

I see they have anti glare setups for regular dmds, but i can't find a premade setup for the larger ones.

Marcos has the louver cover thing for $10 for these pins, just didn't know how they looked on the pin. I'm not against the idea if it blends in.

Any advice? Make my own film? (if so what supplies are needed)

I know the topic itself has been covered many times (as i did search), just didn't see anything specific to the larger dmd's. If you saw or participated in a post that did, please link me.

That's what i figured.
It's amazing how much better the backdrop looks on BF with the pin off. The reflection of the dmd totally ruins it.
Any write ups to make our own?

Quoted from comicalman:

I bought the bent-plastic (for widebodies) from Marcos.
It works great- as long as you are standing up close to pin. The farther away you stand, the more DMD glare you get.

Thanks comic, I ordered one a few days ago.

So I put the visor on today, you can barely tell it's there and kills all the glare from the players view. Well worth $10.
