I came across this video discussing the Flaredinkum Flag. Have any of you used it? What do you think? It seems like it would be useful for times when you want protection from the sun but don't want the bulk of a matte box and rails. I am thinking of purchasing one to use with a Tiffin Variable ND (can't use a lens hood since the front of the Tiffin is unthreaded.)
I've seen these and ones like it used even with a MB. I can't think of any negative reason not to have one in your kit.
I have a bigger one that has a mini cardellini clamp on the end, and I use it on almost 100% of my studio jobs, and many outdoor shots. They are very useful.
Here is the one I have. http://m.filmtools.com/frflwocl.html
