With the Letus Limited Edition Carbon Fiber Hawk viewfinder, photographers and videographers can experience unparalleled clarity and precision in their work. This professional-grade viewfinder is meticulously engineered with a trio of lenses arranged in two groups, a design that surpasses standard single diopter systems. By avoiding the common "pin cushion" distortion, the Hawk ensures a perfectly flat image with edge-to-edge sharpness, enhancing the quality of your shots.
The Hawk boasts a 2.75x magnification factor, meticulously calibrated to provide an expansive view without the need to scan your eyes across the image. This optimal zoom level allows for a comfortable viewing experience, akin to watching a 42" screen from a perfect distance, without the distraction of pixelation that can occur at higher magnifications.
Adjustability is a key feature of the Hawk, with lenses that can be fine-tuned from +1.5 to -2.5 diopters, catering to both nearsighted and farsighted users. This customization eliminates the need for additional spacers, as users can simply rotate the eyepiece until the image comes into sharp focus for their unique vision.
Durability is at the forefront of the Hawk's design, with all lenses encased in precision-milled aluminum housing. The optics are fully coated with high-quality anti-reflective coatings, similar to those used in professional relay lenses and 35mm adapters, and feature an anti-fogging treatment to maintain clear vision in any condition.
The Hawk's viewfinder shroud is crafted from carbon fiber, chosen for its lightweight yet robust properties, ensuring it can withstand the demands of a production environment. The interior boasts an anti-glare coating, while the exterior retains the distinctive carbon fiber pattern, marrying functionality with a stylish aesthetic.
Installation is a breeze, as the Hawk attaches seamlessly to your DSLR without any camera modifications. It includes an adjustable camera plate that threads into the camera's tripod mount and offers X, Y, and Z axis adjustments for compatibility with a wide range of DSLR models. The plate also features threading for attaching to various quick-release tripod plates and base plates, providing flexibility for unconventional mounting scenarios.
For those who frequently switch between video and still photography, the Hawk's support rods come with a quick-release camera plate, allowing the viewfinder to remain on the rods while the camera is detached for still shots. This feature is invaluable for professionals who need to transition swiftly without compromising on stability or quality.
The Hawk is designed to fit the Canon 5DmkII and Canon 7D cameras directly, and with the addition of an extended riser, it can also accommodate the Canon 1DmkIV and the 5D/7D with a battery grip. While primarily tailored for Canon models, the Hawk's versatile design aims to be compatible with other video-capable HDSLR cameras from brands like Nikon, Pentax, and Sony, with custom mounting options planned for future camera models.
In summary, the Letus Limited Edition Carbon Fiber Hawk viewfinder is a durable, high-quality, and innovative accessory that offers professional photographers and videographers a stylish and versatile tool to enhance their visual experience and elevate their craft.
