I'm in need of a good photography sun hat. I want one that I can work in, and take to the parks. Ball caps get in the way when using my DSLR. I end up bumping the brim, having to readjust the hat repeatedly. I know a sun hat brim would be worse, but the added sun protection would be worth it. Plus I'm thinking a wide-brim hat would be more forgiving in the front. Any suggestions?
Have you thought of a bucket hat? It has a wide, flexible brim. I'd love to find something like a short-billed ball cap. I'm surprised that with all of the photographer-specific gear that no one's made a hat for SLR shooters. A quick search suggested hats from Tilley.com or OutdoorResearch.com.

How about this one? http://amzn.com/B00W77JUXW But seriously, you should also consider on that has a neck flap that folds down past the neck for sun protection.
