About the Z-Finder Jr:
An excellent starter viewfinder that. offers a 2.5x focusable
magnification, a 40mm diameter Zacuto optical design lens, a large form
fitting eyecup preventing extraneous light leakage, and a field of view
perfectly matched to 3” LCD screens. It does not have an anti-fog coated
lens. Therefore if you are going in between extreme environments, you
will need some type of anti-fog wipe or material.
