Support
C300-C500
The C300/500 Z-Finder is
an optical viewfinder,
specifically designed to
attach to the Canon C300
and C500 cinema
camera's LCD screen. This
Z-Finder will magnify the
LCD screen by 2x and has
a diopter wheel for
specific focus tuning. It
cuts out any extraneous
light and offers an initial
point of stability by
pressing your eye against
the large eyecup.
The Z-Finder includes 4
interchangeable anti-fog
glass diopters, 0, +1, +2,
and +3 so you can
correct it to your vision
right out of the box and
then fine tune it with our
red adjust wheel for
perfect clarity. -1 and +4
diopters are available for
purchase separately. An
aluminum sun mask is
built in to the Z-Finder to
protect your LCD screen
from sunlight.
