PICTURE COMPOSITION AND VIEWFINDERS
As the viewfinder of the SLR shows the very image which is
formed by the taking lens, it is easy to check the relation between
the subject's perspective and its background, as well as the color
tone effects when using color film, exactly as will be exposed on
the actual film.
MIRANDA Sensorex has a viewfinder of 0.92 magnification (with
50mm f/I.8 lens) and 95% coverage. The size of the picture is
intended to match the size of the color slide mount.
It also causes absolutely no parallax (difference between the area
covered by the viewfinder and by the taking lens) not only in
ordinary shooting but, also in all types of close-ups.
The viewfinder on MIRANDA Sensorex is interchangeable and can be changed with
the most convenient type according to the purpose of the shot so as to make best use
of the camera's capacity. The v viewfinders available are the pentaprism type and
waist-level finders Types I and 3.
· For ordinary shooting it is convenient to use the pentaprism viewfinder which shows
the image right side up and right way round.
· For low-angle or high position shooting and for candid shots, the waist-level finder
VFI becomes useful; however, special care should be taken to avoid light entering the
camera through the focusing screen which may cause incorrect exposure.
· For close-up, copying and photomicrographic work, use critical focuser VF 3 . This
viewfinder when collapsed turns into a I 5 times magnifier for critical focusing at the
center of the focusing screen. When opened it becomes a 5 times magnifier for
inspecting the entire picture area.
