Just doing my daily news skim of the front page, and found this interesting looking one:

Quote:ZIGVIEW simply attaches to the eyepiece of your SLR camera where the viewfinder image is captured by a CMOS sensor built into the Zigview and relayed in real time to a 1.9 inch/TFT colour display for easy viewing at any angle.

The Zigview is particularly useful for low angle photography where you would struggle to see through the viewfinder especially with Macro work, or high angle situations such as press work where it is impossible to see the subject when taking pictures over crowds etc. Zigview makes it easy to see the subject in both these situations and many more, without any difficulty.

ZIGVIEW will work with most digital and film SLR cameras and is supplied with an eyepiece adapter for common Nikon, Fuji and Canon cameras. Other adapters for Konica Minolta and Pentax are available as accessories.
It sounds pretty interesting because since moving to a DSLR, one thing I really miss is the live preview you can get on the LCD screen of consumer digicams, which really help in composing shots in awkward positions.

This one appears to be from a UK based company, their site is here:
