Review: Pleasantly surprised, even with the high price - Considering this was my 3rd iPad case, I was sceptical, especially for the price point. I must say I am pleasantly surprised and my iPad lives in here a lot more than initially expected. The sun hood is good too. I use this as an external monitor or camera monitor a lot and it helps my workload loads
Review: Caged review - Not a bad bit of kit really, quality is robust and has all the mount features for tripod etc, easy to set up and put iPad into and light shade helps when outside
