Re: Viewfinder size and magnification ... you do the math!
If you mean the size of the image inside the viewfinder by viewfinder size then I think you're wrong. Look at the 40D for example: First of all if you have 0.95 magnification on a 22.2x14.8mm sensor. This means that the image showing in the viewfinder (thats what I refer to as viewfinder size) cannot be larger than 0.95… -
Re: Viewfinder size and magnification ... you do the math!
No problem. Looking at Canon's site it is interesting to note the differences. 40D, 95% coverage, 0.95x magnification on a 22.2x14.8mm sensor 5D, 96% coverage, 0.71x magnification on a 35.8x23.9mm sensor 1D Mk III, 100% coverage, 0.76x magnification on a 28.1x18.7mm sensor 1Ds Mk III, 100% coverage, 0.76x magnification on… -
Re: Viewfinder size and magnification ... you do the math!
Thats what I'm thinking scott. And my assumption is that because of the smaller sensor the actual viewfinder also has to be smaller in size. Otherwise the viewfinder magnification would have to be above 1.0x. Which it isn't. If I'm correct (see above) then a 5D with 0.59x magnification would have a viewfinder that has the… -
Viewfinder size and magnification ... you do the math!
Hello there, I like numbers and while I was browsing the-digital-picuture website I came across this viewfinder comparison chart and started thinking (yes that actually happens) that viewfinder magnification must always be understood in relation to the camera's sensor size and the viewfinder coverage, am I right? For…
