Any aftermarket add ons for a viewfinder? Can't see viewfinder shooting outdoors. Help!

I would recommend making a hood out of duct tape to shade the screen. It is a shame, though. The M41 was Canon's last true consumer camcorder with an eye-level viewfinder.

Thank you for the suggestion. I have since also found an LCD Hood by VELLO from B&H I am going to try! The Duct tape may still be needed!

Alright. I'm glad I steered you in the right direction.
