Has anybody done kind a sports viewfinder for a monorail view camera?
Perhaps this question sounds funny, but the reality behind it is the need for good guiding device for setting up camera when it's too dark to see composition on the ground glass.
I can focus on some point lights, but the rough framing must be done somehow.
I have ran to this framing and composing issue several times with a field camera. Usually during dawn or dusk. The LF lenses are just too dark to allow me to see what's included on the frame and what is not.
Just within couple of weeks I was going to take a photograph of the Cathedral, which has quite brightly lit tower. But I could not see a it at the GG - eventhought I knew that lens is so wide that it should be there.
At the end I had to leave scene without a photograph because I could not be sure what would be in the frame and what's not.
Now I cannot use a field camera which is easier platform for sports viewfinders etc..
So, any ideas, solutions or perhaps examples?
