Zacuto Smart Z-Finder Reviews

Good viewfinder but read this

By David

Be prepared to struggle all day to install this device. It is especially hard to install on the newest iPhone 15 Pro Max. Ask me how I know. \ The phone is almost too big for the finder, and a case on the phone makes it too thick to fit the strangely named BRIDGE. \ Operating the phone through the hole is very frustrating. Swiping from the edges of an iPhone, always requiring about 3 swipes until the phone notices you, is much, much harder to do with the Zacuto. \ Once you remove the hand strap to attach it to the other side, you will never, ever remember how to retie it. \ The magnetic clamp sticks badly. Badly. \ You will scratch your heads wondering what the light baffles are and how to install them. \ All this being said ... \ A dark eye-level finder magnified by a lens is something that has been missing from smartphones since we had our first phones. Now, hasn't it? Zacuto has a brilliant design here, and in about 3 generations, it will be ready for all of us to use. It's just brilliant. \ Who says this? The most fanatic amateur shutterbug you have ever met, owner of more than a dozen fine cameras for over 61 years, a kid who mixed developers and stop baths and wound long strips of film and put them in cartridges without exposing them. This kid even printed color in an apartment without a photo washing sink. He even built a camera from wood and Erector set parts, took apart his microscope and invented photomicrocrography ... in 1964. So, he must know something. \
