DPreview.com reports that a UK based company called Intro2020 is distributing the Zigview angled LCD viewfinder for SLR cameras.  The unit is basically a tiny CCD video camera and LCD monitor merged with a case that mounts over your camera’s viewfinder, much like a right-angle finder.  This unit may be of interest for underwater photographers as it looks like it could be enclosed in a small box and mounted on an underwater camera housing.  The 1.9 inch diagonal LCD display, while probably not fine enough for determining focus, would be very helpful for macro composition.

  1. I seriously doubt it would work well in a box attached to an existing housing without a dedicated magnification optic in between.  There would be considerable space between the camera’s eyepiece and the Zigview unit!

    Still, it looks pretty kick-ass.
