Newell Desview T2 Black universal monitor hood — pair, black

Newell Desview T2 Black is a universal monitor hood supplied as a pair in a black finish. Designed to reduce glare and stray light on camera field monitors, it fits a broad range of compatible display sizes and brands. The hood improves screen visibility in bright environments and on-location shoots, offering practical shading for more accurate image framing and exposure assessment. The trapezoid design provides a wider viewing area while the construction and special coating maintain image color and clarity.

Advantages

The monitor hood uses a special coating and beam splitter glass that allow up to 97% light transmittance without altering image colours or introducing double reflections, helping to reduce mis-framing and exposure errors. Being supplied as a pair and finished in black, it provides consistent shading for stereo or dual-monitor setups. The trapezoid shape increases the usable viewing area and facilitates comfortable positioning and reading of on-screen information during shoots.

Suitable for

• On-location video shoots and outdoor filming
• Studio monitoring where controlled ambient light is required
• Field monitors and camera-mounted displays of compatible sizes
• Dual-monitor setups that require matched shading

How to use

Attach the Newell Desview T2 Black hood to a compatible field monitor according to the manual, ensuring the hood edges align with the display perimeter to block stray light.

For dual setups, install both hoods to match shading and viewing direction.

Usage recommendations

For best results, keep the coated glass clean using the supplied microfiber cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. Check alignment before each shoot and verify that the hood does not obstruct any monitor controls or ports. When filming in very bright conditions, combine the hood with an appropriate sunshade or cover to further minimize glare.
