	Viewfinder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In photography a viewfinder is what the photographer looks through to compose, and in many cases to focus, the picture.
		Viewfinders are widely used in cameras of different types: still and movie, film, analog and digital.
		In addition to its primary purpose, an electronic viewfinder can be used to replay previously captured material and usually has on-screen display.

	Viewfinder: Camera System: Glossary: Learn: Digital Photography Review
		The optical viewfinder on a digital compact camera consists of a simple optical system that zooms at the same time as the main lens and has an optical path that runs parallel to the camera's main lens.
		Since the viewfinder is positioned above the actual lens (often there is also a horizontal offset), what you see through the optical viewfinder is different from what the lens projects onto the sensor.
		Because the optical path of the viewfinder runs parallel to the camera's main lens, what you see is different from what the lens projects onto the sensor.

		ith cameras that use side-mounted viewfinders, the viewfinder can often be flipped from one side of the camera to the other for operators who prefer to use their left or right eyes.
		Since the viewfinder is connected to the camera by a long cable, you can easily hold the camera over your head, as shown here, place it flat on the ground, or even shoot backwards with the camera mounted on your shoulder.
		Viewfinder alignment may have to be adjusted with the help of an engineer or technician.

	Canon New F-1 - Interchangeable Viewfinder Options
		The greatest era of interchangeable viewfinders was in the seventies and mid-eighties where many of the top of the line models from various SLR manufacturers introduced their models with this felxible feature in mind.
		While the Nikon F2's viewfinders and the original Canon F-1 designed to have their metering cell housed into the finder as a metered prism, Canon improved upon that idea to enable it serves a few more objectives and provide even more features and improvements.
		Changing all the viewfinders finders is merely a matter of pressing the buttons located on both sides of the housing and sliding the unit off.

	Leica Photography Forum: Leica viewfinder magnifications
		If you use the camera's viewfinder for framing with a 28mm lens, you will be hunting for the corners, just as you would be with a 35mm lens on a.85 body.
		The reason I don't recommend the.85 viewfinder is that it precludes using a 35mm lens in the future without having to hunt for the corners.
		Using the 1.25 viewfinder magnifier would, of course, give a view with the same magnification as the.72 viewfinder, which would be perfectly adequate for landscape photogaphy, one of your intended applications, and for most types of travel photograpy, your other intended application.

	KODAK: Why What You See in the Viewfinder Isn't What You Get! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		This is because there is a separation between the viewfinder and the lens that creates an effect called parallax, where your point of view as you look through the viewfinder is slightly different than the view through the lens where the picture is taken.
		You can see this displacement clearly when the subject is less than 4 feet from the camera, and because the viewfinder allows for a greater margin of error in framing the subject, the final picture includes an additional small portion outside the visible margin in the viewfinder.
		Also, there are secondary lines in the viewfinder that show the portions of the image that are not captured when your subject is closer than 4 feet from the camera.

	Sony Mavica CD1000 Digital Camera Review: Viewfinder
		The idea of being able to see the exposure settings in the viewfinder is a good one, but navigating the menus through this small viewfinder is a bit of a trick (one we weren't able to easily do).
		The advantage of an eye-level viewfinder, as provided by the "optical" viewfinder is that it both promotes a more secure camera grip (arms clamped to your sides, camera body braced against your face) that helps with long telephoto and low-light shots.
		The electronic viewfinder system needs much more light to operate though, meaning that you'll have to either look at the finished shot and readjust the framing as needed, or just shoot at a wider-angle setting than otherwise, and hope to get all of the subject in the frame.

	Lensless Camera Viewfinder
		The Hines lens-free viewfinder exceeds the quality of the Albada viewfinder because the image of the scene is undegraded by lenses, yet provides a bright frame around the scene.
		The front window of any viewfinder is less than 2 inches from the eye, creating soft focus edges which are approximately equal in width to the pupil diameter.
		Further, although manufacturers can set the focus of the viewfinder's image at a distance easily viewable by everyone (15-30 feet), typically the image distance is set at 2-4 feet, ruling out bifocal wearers seeing the image sharply.

	Repair a broken viewfinder in a Kodak dc240 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Check if the viewfinder correctly focused (but not zooming) or is it out of focus (but somehow zooming) or none of the above.
		To fix the clutch in the right position, switch off the camera (this moves the lenses to the "zero" position), then manually move the camshaft until the lenses are all forward, you'll see that there's a notch that prevents the pins from falling off the cam (and prevents you from turning the shaft more).
		If the viewfinder is completely jammed, and the lenses cannot move try to rotate the fl plastic camshaft and see if it can rotate (only the shaft, not the gear that's attached on its back).

	The Canon FU-1000 Monochrome CRT Viewfinder for the XL1 / XL1S by Ken Tanaka
		But the fact is that high-resolution monochrome viewfinders have been, and continue to be, the standard image-checking tool throughout the broadcast and professional videography field.
		Although color LCD viewfinder screens have begun appearing on professional cameras they are offered as secondary, and often multifunctional, viewing aids.
		Realizing that a BandW viewfinder would be important to the success of the XL1 with professional videographers Canon enlisted the help of Ikegami, the renowned manufacturer of ENG and broadcast cameras and equipment, to develop a BandW viewfinder for the XL1.

	Minolta Dimage 7Hi Digital Camera Review: Viewfinder
		As was the case with the original Dimage 7 and again with the 7i, the viewfinder is one of the most interesting aspects of the Dimage 7Hi.
		The Digital Hyper Viewfinder display would generically be called an "Electronic Viewfinder" (EVF), and is essentially a miniaturized version of the LCD monitor, complete with image information display.
		Without a low-light-capable viewfinder, you're reduced to guessing where your subject is in the viewfinder.
