Argraph Offers Live View Addon for DSLRs: Zigview

Two of the biggest buzzwords at the PMA convention last week were "Live View," giving DSLR users the ability to see a shot framed up on an LCD viewscreen as well as in the camera's optical viewfinder.

Zigview S2 Digital Angle Finder: Eye On the Finder, 30 Feet Away

The Zigview S2 Digital Angle Finder is a detachable high-rez 2.5-inch viewfinder that clamps onto your digital SLR's eyepiece, and you can either use it as a waist-level finder or take it off the camera and still get a good view of your shot even if your camera is in one of those high- or low-angle situations.

Zigview: Twisted Display


Ok, ok, some pervert is obviously going to see the new Zigview digital angle viewfinder and think: "Wow, just what I need for all my 'up-the-skirt' shots." And while we're not condoning that usage for it, low-angle sidewalk shots are certainly an option with this new device. Attach this baby to the eyepiece of your digital or film SLR and it displays the image in real time on a two-inch/TFT color display for easy viewing from a variety of angles. Low-angle macro work and cool ant's-eye perspective shots are two of the more interesting (and legal) usages we can think of for the Zigview. But the device also might appeal to news photographers trying to take high-angle "Hail Mary" shots over huge crowds. The Zigview is being distributed in the U.S. by Argraph.—Dan Havlik More »
