Not exactly live preview isn't it... basically just another angle finder... something like Angle Finder Vn... just that it relay its pictures to its own cmos sensor and put it on LCD...

If you are using it under bright light, same thing with your LCD, you might not able to see accurately.

For 119 GBP, its over $300... I would go and get an Angle finder...

Just me...

Cool idea.. bad implementation.. too restrictive IMO. Soon we will see more similar products with better design!

move where?? (who is the one moving the topics btw? :think: )

This discussion is about whether the digital VF working with KM 7D.. cool or not? :bsmilie:

Oh wait.. can be use for film SLR also.. not limited to DSLR.
 

it is built-in battery lah... anyway, i see see, beh song sell lor... i still waiting for my angle finder vn...

It is actually live preview in a sense since the image is TTL and it's live. U can actually treat it like a digicam's viewfinder where it helps with framing since the takes the entire image from the viewfinder including the metering and mode displays and other warning notes and puts them on a large 1.8" LCD panel. I expect that if this is popular with DSLR users, then the screen size can always be increased. Having live preview would be good in certain situations. Especially candid ones where lifting a large DLSR to your eyes means u are going to shoot..... kekeke...

The most annoying thing is that the adaptors that come with the viewfinder are only for Nikon and Canon.... Minolta's is a separate accessory....

I'm not sure why an analogue SLR user would want this... It makes no difference to him whereas the DSLR user can see his shot immediately after he takes it and this live preview thing is very useful.
 

but this live preview will be different from conventional compact digicams where you could literally see the metered result on the LCD.

If this device captures the entire viewfinder frame, u will also see your metering scale, and shutter speeds, aperature values change in real time. U only dun have a live histogram that's all.

yup but that's just the scale. those live preview that showed the immediate result on the LCD is very useful and that made sure you'll capture what you want.
 

i forsee 1 problem with it... i always set my diopter all the way to 1 side, den when i use this, wonder will the image be blur anot... den blur, i use DMF to make it clear... my final pic will be blur also... think no wonder y i so blur... btw is there a difference between our eyes blur from myopia vs an out of focus image?

This is still not same as LCD screen on digicam. It works similarly to a optical VN finder except that it is displayed on a LCD which can see from further away.. It doesn't have live preview history and the display won't correct itself as you compensate EV mah.

focusing doesn't rely on the VF, the VF is just to let you see. so adjusting the diopter needs the subject to be 100% in focus.

like i say... if i use DMF, den i change the focusing?
