Viewfinders

Hugyfot housings are delivered with a standard viewfinder.
Optionally they can be equipped with 2 types
of Inon viewfinders.
Please note that a Hugyfot housing is pressure rated to 100m
when equipped with the standard viewfinder.
When equipped with the Inon viewfinders
depth limit is reduced to 75m.

45° viewfinder

The 45 degree Viewfinder extends the eyepoint without changing the viewfinder image size (as when viewing the camera’s finder directly, i.e. by x1.0) so that 100% of the camera's finder image can be seen without vignetting even when viewing through housing/mask.
The eyepiece is positioned at a 45 degree angle relative to the camera's optical axis which helps in shooting situations like imaging a small subject on the seafloor, by enabling the diver to keep their body off the ground and head at a more natural position relative to the housing. Also the eyepiece rotates 360 degrees to help when shooting vertical compositions, especially from low angles.
Anti-reflective multi-coated glass optics for high light transmission and bright, clear viewfinder image. Lens construction: 4 lens groups with 6 lens elements.

Straight viewfinder

The straight viewfinder extends the eyepoint without changing viewfinder image size (as when viewing the camera’s finder directly, i.e. by x1.0) so that 100% of the camera's finder image can be seen without vignetting, even when viewing through housing/mask.
Unlike the 45 degree Viewfinder, the Straight Viewfinder is positioned in parallel with the camera’s finder so viewing replicates the same natural eye position relative to the camera as when shooting on land. This is somtimes better for panning or fast moving subjects.
Also, with the straight viewfinder it is possible to make fine distance adjustments between housing and subject by just moving the housing relative to the subject, without readjusting your body position each time, and without losing sight of the subject in the viewfinder.
High light transmission anti-reflective multi-coated glass optics for bright, clear viewfinder image.
