I'm perfectly aware that I'm a computer guy, and that I'm a disaster with manual things.
However, since I've already anticipated this somewhere else in the forum, this is the first version of my naive idea of putting a viewfinder to the CFV display and turn it into a poor-man EVF.
In conjunction with the 4 re-programmable buttons, the gears and the joystick of the grip, I can operate mostly without taking my eye off the viewfinder.
That's only for the very sunny days or in case of manual focus with adapted optics, especially when hand-holding the camera. Normally I enjoy using the display at a distance and holding the camera at a lowered position in pure waist-level 50x stile.
I'll try to make it better looking (and built), and maybe will use a more rigid loupe in the future, for for now it seems to work well.
Of course I'd have bought an X2D if this is what I really wanted, but I need a trifecta, which now is almost a quadruplet.
