Many digicam users like to use a hood or viewer to see the LCD in bright light. I used one very happily with my Casio camera. I tired to mount a loupe on my A70 using velcro but found it very cumbersome. Does anybody know if there is a viewing hood available for the A70.

Check this site http://www.hoodmanusa.com/compatibility/CANON.htm. I'm very satisfied with it.

Thanks, Peter:

I checked that site. It enabled me to imitate the design to make a simple string loop to hold my magnifyer without using velcro.


Here are photos (web cam photos-not great) of my viewer hood.

Peter - Do you have any preferences based on experiences with the H-DCR vs. the cheaper H180 model?
