Has anyone heard of a company called Crop Lines. They add lines to your veiw finder some how do you know what an 8x10 or5x7 would look like. If anyone know anything let me know. Here is thier web page. www.croplines.com (external link)

You will save money by using screen protectors and marking those and chimping your shots to check your framing/composition.

However, I would suggest that after a while framing comes automatically.

The only problem I see here is that not all cameras have a viewfinder that displays all of the image that is recoreded on the sensor. For instance, my XT only shows around 95% horizontally and vertically.

1/ Seems a bit pricy to me.
2/ Who (besides Kodak) decided that 8X10 is the right crop, anyway? That's why we use mattes, no? ;)

that may be handy if you can get them to put rule of third lines in
that way you can level your horizon up on them too
might be handy for landscape shooters
