A circular polarizer will cut the reflection. But, from the looks of it, your camera can't take filters. So, the cheap and easy solution for you is to use a pair of polarized sunglasses (they can be had for cheep at a Walgreens or other place that sells cheap sunglasses). As long as the lenses are polarized this will work. When you want to take the picture, hold the sunglasses up in front of your lens so that you can't see the frames or anything else strange, then rotate the sunglasses in front of the camera until you can't see a reflection any more, or the reflection is minimised.
