I understand typo's. I don't understand laying off cognac to prevent them though.
Originally posted by Digitalis Actually they can: larger, higher quality prisms can improve brightness the screens can be improved as well.
But why hasn't that been done then? Why do we need to fidget a product into being acceptable with the help of third party parts?
Originally posted by Digitalis I don't know about you but I don't want my viewfinder shifting WB on me, I fix my cameras at 5000K - all of them. None of the automatic WB system any manufacturer uses nails the lighting perfectly yet, I'd hate to be at the mercy of an EVF that changes values at a split seconds notice.
You're assuming that you can disable AWB of the camera whilst the EVF will ignore that and continues to AWB. Now I fully agree that that would be highly undesireable. Not to mention stupid.
Originally posted by Digitalis the reason I enjoy working with OVF based cameras is because the only real limit is my own eyes. If I can't see it there is little point in pressing the shutter and hoping that the camera can.
To each his own. But the limits of your eyes is not in line with the limits of sensors, film, optics or whatever viewfinder. What about IR-photography? Astrography? Super-tele? Ultra-macro?
And what about being able to see movement with your eyes, but not in the OVF? (video)
