The Zacuto Z-Finder Pro 3x for 3.2" Screens is an optical viewfinder that allows DSLR cameras to have the correct form factor for video. This Z-finder will magnify the LCD screen by 3x and has a diopter for specific focus tuning. It cuts out any extraneous light and offers an initial point of stability by pressing your eye against our comfy, large eyecup. The Z-finder Pro 3x for 3.2" screens comes with a 40mm diameter Zacuto optical designed lens, anti-fog coated protective covers, and a mounting system designed for 3.2" LCD screens. The diopter allows you to dial in the focus to match your eye. If you need extra focal points you can use the included Z-Finder Extender Frames. These are semi-permanent stackable frames that attach to the body of the Z-Finder Pro and extend the Z-Finder glass further away from the LCD screen for people who are farsighted. Compatibility The Z-Finder Pro 3x for 3.2" screens is the standard Z-Finder Pro 3x packaged with a Z-Finder 3.2" Mounting Frame for Small Body DSLRs. This frame is compatible with small body cameras with 3.2" screens like the Canon 5D MIII and the Nikon D800. This is not a new Z-finder. 3x Magnification The 3x magnification is recommended in particular for users who are farsighted and may have problems seeing up close. If you wear strong reading glasses this is the model for you! The Z-Finder Pro 3x has a diopter range of -2.75 and up (unlimited with extender frames). Users with 20/20 vision can use either magnification. It is a personal preference. Your camera model is irrelevant when choosing between the 2.5x and 3x magnifications. If you are particularly nearsighted and have problems seeing distances or are just looking for a smaller magnification we recommend the Z-Finder Pro 2.5x for 3.2" screens. Farsighted users can still use the 2.5x model with the addition of the included Extender Frames. Attaches to Camera The Z-Finder Pro attaches to your camera with the included Gorilla Plate V2 and Z-Finder 3.2" Mounting Frame for Small DSLR Bodies. (The Z-Finder Mounting Frame can also be attached to the Zacuto DSLR Baseplate.) The Gorilla Plate V2 attaches to the bottom of your camera using a 1/4 20" screw and has 1/4 20" screw holes underneath to attach a tripod plate. The metal Z-Finder Mounting Frame attaches to the Gorilla Baseplate using the provided red thumb screws. The Z-finder itself pops on and off the Z-finder Mounting frame. No magnets or glue are used. The metal Z-Finder Mounting Frame is backed with rubber to prevent scratching or slippage. 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. Z-Finder Pro 3x for 3.2" Screens includes: Z-Finder Pro loupe with 3x magnification and diopter Three (3) Extender Frames Gorilla Plate V2 and 3.2" Mounting Frame for Small DSLR Bodies (Canon 5D M3 Nikon D800/600 type cameras) Lanyard and Lanyard Hook Lens Cap, Sun Mask, and protective boot Z-Finder Dust Cover One installed and one additional Anti-Fog disc. This also acts as a lens protector and is expendable. WARNING: The Z-finder is a magnifier and as such will magnify the sun and could damage the LCD screen if the sun is allowed to shine directly through the Z-finder lens. This is not a defect but a physical property. Caution should be taken to avoid direct sun light. Proper use of the included lens cap and sun mask will dramatically reduce but not eliminate risk.
