RPCrowe Cream of the Crop  More info | I use a Hoodman Loup to enable me to view my LCD in bright light. I believe it is just about the same (but a bit more expensive) as the CowboyStudio Meike LCD Viewfinder. It converts the LCD to an eye level viewfinder... See my images at http://rpcrowe.smugmug.com/

Slips on and off with no sticky frame mess nor magnets around my magnetic media. Get magic lantern if you don't already and I bet you spend a heck of lot more time using live view Do you have a picture of this? and ya, im going to put magic lantern on. But I notices there is a couple ones on their site. Im not sure which would be best. 5D MKii - 7D - Sigma 10-20 - 24-70L - 50mm 1.8 - 70-200L 2.8 IS - 430ex ii - AB1600/vegabond mini -
