Alex Donkle Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Just watching the BTS on Titanic, I noticed Cameron using an interesting director's viewfinder that had a wireless LCD attached to it. He has it in this video between 2:16-2:40 (shooting the dance scene) http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=cM3x4qAc0Dc Closest thing I've found is this... http://media.panavision.com/ReferenceLibra...pvau_finder.pdf But that appears to be strictly on the Australian Panavision website and it also doesn't look like it's the exact same thing. Partly just curious what Cameron was using, but also curious if anyone knows of a non-Panavision viewfinder that could be bought for a shoot? (looking for lens approximations, so just using a regular DV camera isn't what I'm looking for) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you want a PV mount finder or just a finder with PL ? If you want PV then there's something like this http://www.thedopshop.com/product_info.php...;products_id=70 or in PL mount http://www.thedopshop.com/product_info.php...;products_id=50 or this one can take a DV camera http://www.visualproducts.com/storeProduct...t=3&Cat2=43 jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
