The C100 Z-Finder Pro is an optical viewfinder, specifically designed to attach to the Canon C100 cinema camera LCD. This Z-Finder will magnify the LCD screen by 1.8x & has a diopter for specific focus tuning. It cuts out any extraneous light & offers an initial point of stability by pressing your eye against the large eyecup. The C100 Z-finder Pro comes with a 40mm diameter Zacuto optical lens, anti-fog coated protective covers, & all necessary additional accessories for the Canon C100. The diopter means that you can dial in the focus to match your eye. If you need extra focal points you can use the included Z-Finder Extender Frames. These are semi-permanent stackable frames that attach to the body of the Z-Finder Pro & extend the Z-Finder glass further away from the LCD screen for people who are farsighted. The C100 Z-Finder Pro is comprised of three important parts. The first is the viewfinder itself with the lens, diopter, & eyecup. The second is the mounting system. The mount slides onto the Canon C100 LCD screen when articulated. The viewfinder snaps on & off the frame & can hang around your neck on the included lanyard when not in use. The third part is a set of Z-Bands that attach to your camera via a screw hole on the film panel included on the left side of the camera & then clip into two ball sockets on the Z-Finder itself. These Z-Bands add tension & support to the mount so the LCD screen & viewfinder can be set at any angle. Without the use of the Z-Bands, the hinge on the LCD screen cannot support the viewfinder (in any tilted up positions). The C100 Z-Finder Pro is specifically designed for the Canon C100 camera & is not compatible with any other cameras or alternate set ups. The C100 Z-Finder Pro is designed for use with the standard battery included with the Canon C100 camera. (Canon
