Straight Viewfinder Unit II for Nauticam

A straight viewfinder designed for Nauticam housings, providing exceptional clarity for full-frame DSLR cameras. A large prism with minimal light loss and anti-reflective coatings applied to each optical surface ensures a bright, clear view all the way to the edges. The optical design also targets the electronic viewfinders (EVFs) of mirrorless cameras, which offer a wider field of view than optical viewfinders. This minimizes light loss and image degradation in the corners that often occur when using EVFs or high-magnification viewfinders. The viewfinder provides 1.0x magnification, identical to that on land, offering a natural and undistorted view without the visual strain often caused by forced magnification.
The viewfinder features a 60 mm high eye-point design, allowing comfortable viewing of the entire image without vignetting, even when wearing a mask. The case that houses the large prism employs thick-walled FRP (fiberglass-reinforced plastic), combining compactness and light weight with exceptional strength.
