Quoting Godfrey DiGiorgi <[email protected]>:

Kirk uses a Hoodman loupe to provide an eye level viewfinder when needed. Although not to my taste as the perfect solution, it does work well.

The recently announced Panasonic GX7 looks like it might be nearly the ideal digital camera in this regard, at least in concept. Articulated high-rez EVF and LCD in a compact and nicely laid out body design.

Yes, I would like to see Ricoh do something in this direction too. A new-age Pentax model, an updated GXR line ... There are many possibilities.



I've looked at the Hoodman loupe. I even tried to cobble together a sort of hood from some cardboard but all I saw on the LCD screen was my own reflection - not a pretty sight.

In any event both options negate the main advantage of the Q - its smallness.

The GX7 does look interesting.
