Product Description

The Z-Finder Pro 2.5x is another one of Zacuto's Optical Viewfinders that allows DSLR cameras to have the correct form factor for video. It offers 2.5x focusable magnification (a 3x magnification is available), a 40mm diameter Zacuto optical designed Anti-Fog lens, an eyecup preventing extraneous light leakage, a diopter and a field of view perfectly matched to 3" LCD screens. The diopter allows you to dial in the focus to match your eye perfectly. If you need extra focal point you can use the Z-Finder Extender Frames. The Z-Finder Pro 2.5x has a diopter range of -4.75 and up (unlimited with extender frames). These are semi-permanently stackable frames that attach to the skirt of the Z-Finder Pro and extends the Z-Finder glass further way from the LCD screen for people who are farsighted.

The Z-Finder Pro uses the Gorilla Baseplate and Z-Finder mounting frame to mount to the camera. The Gorilla Baseplate attaches to the bottom of your camera using a 1/4 20" screw and the Z-Finder mounting frame attaches to the Gorilla Baseplate using thumb screws. The rubber back mounting frame does not attach to your LCD; it is held in place against your LCD with pressure. This method allows you to quickly remove the Z-Finder Pro by snapping it off the frame. If you want to remove the entire mounting frame from your camera, you can do so by loosening the thumb screws and pulling up on the metal mounting frame to release it. With the Z-Finder Pro, you are also a step closer to using one of the Gorilla Support Rigs, as they use the same baseplate as the base. Top to learn more

Essential video tool! See update tweak.
I bought a Zacuto Z-Finder 2.5x to take advantage of the tremendous video opportunities with the Canon 5DII. With or without glasses, you simply can not focus this camera in video mode without some sort of magnifying setup. The Z-Finder is a professional viewfinder that is head-and-shoulders better than imitators.First off, it works perfectly! Focusing is tack sharp and I can even shoot moving subjects. This is a high-quality optical viewfinder that covers the entire live view screen from side-to-side. The fit is tight and secure on the back of the camera. It takes a pretty good yank to remove the Z-Finder, plus it has a safety loop you can secure around your neck or the camera.The anti-fog disk over the rear eyepiece works great. I've used my Z-Finder in the humid, steamy air of Houston after a rainstorm, and it never has a hint of fog. Zacuto includes an extra anti-fog disk in case you ever damage the original.The tough machined aluminum Gorilla...

Best small solution available
I've looked at all the options for a compact solution to solve the question:What product will help me improve my focusing ability on my DSLR?This is it.Excellent construction and handling. Fits perfectly, works perfectly.Note: Some may prefer the 2.5x version. If I had to do it again, I might get that version, because the 3x makes the screen of my Canon 5D mk2 look a bit pixelated (ie: not enough resolution for this much magnification).

AWESOME...but too expensive...
Pros: Great Viewfinder. Well made, the anti-fog coating covers are wonderful. It is simply great, fits perfectly on my T2I. I suggest buying the "Z-Finder Mounting Frame" if you have the Canon T2I so you don't have to unscrew the mounting plate every time you have to change the battery. Plus if you have only one viewfinder and a spare camera, you can swap between the two.Cons:It is very expensive...there are much cheaper ones, but I am unsure of the cheaper one's quality.Final Thoughts: I took off one star for the price, but in my opinion, when filming video on these DSLRs or any video for that matter, one of the most important things is seeing what you are recording. Focus is SO important. So I decided to not skimp out with this one item, and I am very happy I did not skimp out. Dont get me wrong, you may be able to get similar results out of another viewfinder, but I have not found any that are 3x and that have anti-fog and a diopter. Plus most others use...

Essential HDDSLR add on...
Purchased this for my new Nikon D7000 which I acquired primarily for video shootingAs a long time Pro Photographer I wasn't used to shooting with the LCD screen on my dslrs...manual focus was proving problematic at best while shooting video so I decided to add a loupe to assist until I can justify getting a SmallHD D6 video monitor (check it out...it's the ultimate hddslr wish list item ;-).First tried the Hoodman combo and returned it after one day...the rubber they use attracts dirt, fingerprints and dust like a magnet so it looked beat up after a few hours attempted use. I say attempted because it moved around a bit when used as a third brace point and wasn't the most comfortable against my eye...the $16 rubber band is a joke and kept blocking the lens opening during changes.This was what I should have ordered from the start...pro build quality, excellent optics and feels solid and comfortable against my eye with or without glasses. The slight...

Awesome Product
This product rocks! I got this because I did a shoot in the daytime and I couldn't see my LCD Screen on my Canon 7D. I did some research for various viewfinders and I came across this. This thing is worth its weight in gold! It's super clean, the metal bracket it comes with is really strong and built well. It fit around my 3in lcd no problem. Before I got this product I rented a Zacuto Zfinder for the weekend. I compared the 2 and the Carry Speed was much clearer than the Zfinder and a fraction of the cost. The Zfinder came with a mount you had to screw in, the Carry Speed just pops on and off and comes with a lanyard so that made it easy to use. I recommend this product and I wonder how I went this long without it!

The Smart Man's Z-Finder
Have had mine for about 2 weeks now and use it with my T2i. This has changed my life when recording video. Not only does it make pulling focus that much easier but all of my shots are now steadier when holding it to my eye. For $60 or so, you can not go wrong. Get this, I promise you will not regret it!

Perfect viewfinder for the T2i at a great price
I've been pricing 3:2 viewfinders for my Canon T2i. I was about to purchase another model which cost about the same as this one, but did not come with the eyecup. The eyecup brought the price up to about $30 more than the CarrySpeed VFinder. As soon as I saw this at a very popular auction site at a price lower than similar models with the same features, I jumped on it. The unit is built very well. It came with a lanyard, two steel frames, a cleaning cloth, and the eyecup attached. I attached the metal frame to the lcd cover already attached to my camera. I haven't used any other similar units to compare this one with, but I don't imagine one can find one with the same features in this price range.

ups and downs
so i had a tough time with this product. it took waaaaay longer to get this then it said and when i emailed the shipper (photo smart) i got a bad email back blaming it on weather and didn't get an apology. once the product finally arrived it worked great and the product was awesome, it made focusing and video way easier and the screen is huge. after a few weeks one of the magnets came out of the viewfinder but it slide back in easy with some glue and haven't had a problem since. it makes a huge difference in ease of focusing and the eyecup is big and comfortable. only problem was the company that ships it and that the magnet came out.
