I am about to purchase a 16:9 anamorphic lens but am not sure of how the image will be monitored for framing purposes. Is there a shade/magnifier for the lcd screen that registers 16:9?http://www.DVXuser.com/YaBBImages/cool.gif

Re: how to monitor framing in 16:9.
Century optics is making one.. but you can also but the 7" panasonic LCD that does anamorphic, or most current field monitors have a 16x9 mode.
But for framing, that distortion you see really isnt that bad.. it looks a little squished on the monitor but not so much that you cant frame. You just gotta be a little more careful on the overscan/underscan parts of the frame.

Re: how to monitor framing in 16:9.
I find that all things are relative in the viewfinder, even though everything is still squeezed, the top, botton, left and right are still that when viewed at 16:9. I don't reallt need to see it unsquuezed since all obejects are relative to each other and the edge of the frame.
Now that's just me when shooting, when clients are watching, it is a different issue.

It's for the LCD alright, but not for 3.5" LCDs like the DVX100, it appears that it's only for camcorders with 2.5" LCDs like the Sony PD150, Canon GL2, and similar models.

Yes, it's for the eyepc., the parts are done, we are just screwing it together. You should be able to order it from our dealers (all our sales people should know about it), our list price is $395.00, dealers should have a better price.
