Product Highlights
- Attaches Around 3.2" LCD
- Lets You Snap Z-Finder Viewfinder On/Off
- Compatible with All Z-Finders
The Zacuto 3.2" Adhesive Frame for Z-Finder Viewfinder lets you snap a Zacuto Z-Finder Viewfinder quickly on and off a 3.2" LCD, like that of Canon's 5D Mark III and 1DX and of Nikon's D800 and D4. The frame attaches around the LCD by a one-time adhesive and then you can snap the Z-Finder onto it and off from it as many times as you want, and it's compatible with all Z-Finders out there. (You can at any time safely remove the frame from your camera, but its adhesive will be lost.)
Normally, a Z-Finder attaches by a thumbscrew system, which requires screwing and unscrewing each time you attach, but the frame provides you instead with a quick-release system. And considering the affordable cost of the frame, if you have several cameras with 3.2" LCDs, you can purchase several frames and be able to quickly move your Z-Finder from one camera to another.
The frame ships with an extender (which is also a frame), the exact kind that comes with a Z-Finder. The extender attaches to the Z-Finder, and then by means of this extender the Z-Finder snaps onto the frame. Both the frame and the extender are made of reliable plastic.
Nikon D800 users please note: the D800 has a dial close to its screen, and this dial gets in the way of the frame, so D800 users are advised to use the clear screen protector -- part # BM-12 -- that comes with the D800 when attaching the sticky frame. You'll only need to use the top and bottom adhesive of the frame in this case, leaving the backing on the sides unpeeled so the glue underneath will not attract dirt and lint. The frame will be scored and marked to guide you in doing all this.

Comments about Zacuto 3.2" Adhesive Frame for Z-Finder Viewfinder:
Used with Zacuto Z-Finder, as I shoot a lot with tripod, and Zacuto's gorilla plate interfers with my L-plate, thus I needed the adhesive frame. I wish it fit my D800 LCD perfectly, as it extends too wide and interfers slightly with the directional pad (even when perfectly centered). It's also not quite tall enough, thus a tiny bit of the top and bottom are cropped (as in like 3mm, but still). For a $[$]+ item (the Z-finder), I'm shocked the adhesive frame isn't included with the package. Pretty shady if you asked me.

Comments about Zacuto 3.2" Adhesive Frame for Z-Finder Viewfinder:
I used quite a few of the Zacuto adhesive frames in the past for the Canon Mark II and Mark IV, which were great, but this is not as good due to the extra screen size. To compensate for the larger screen size, another section is added in the middle to accomodate the Z-Finder. It takes a lot of force to apply the Z-finder, as well as remove it with this mount, but the problem is that the extra force can pull off the whole adhesive frame. I followed all the instructions for curing the adhesive, but it still fell off.
I'd recommend the gorilla plate & metal frame combination that Zacuto makes for this camera as its rock solid and you can remove it at any point.

Comments about Zacuto 3.2" Adhesive Frame for Z-Finder Viewfinder:
If you're like me, you're always finding ways to make life simpler. The Gorilla plate that comes with the Z-Finder is overkill if just using it for the viewfinder. Get this.

Comments about Zacuto 3.2" Adhesive Frame for Z-Finder Viewfinder:
I like having my camera stripped down to bare bones when shooting for our television program. This little mount lets me mount my Z-finder Pro without using the Gorilla plate and adapter. With this there is no light leakage and that makes it easier (for me)to focus the camera. I have had the smaller frame on 2 MkIIs and had one pop off after about 8 months. For [$] I keep a spare around just incase.
