C100: Really rubbish viewfinder and LCD

[Andy Turner]

Some people have found a way to use it and are happy with it. For me, outdoor shooting with the VF was difficult. I ended up putting the rubber eye cup from my Zacuto Z-Finder over the C100 VF and it blocks the sun enough for me to use it outdoors. I pretty much keep it on and it works good enough but it's not a perfect fit.

I will second this...I tried shooting some shots of my daughter in the snow yesterday...it was virtually impossible to focus. Putting this over the VF dramatically improved things. I am really looking forward to Zacutos z-finder for the c100 though. I will be getting that as soon as its available.

That's cool. That's very cool. Will give it a try - if only until Zacuto 'do the right thing'.

Z-finder availability is supposed to be April 2013. I'm sure I saw the original date as beginning December 2012. Hopefully it does ship in April as I think it will be a must-have accessory.
