LDK 5309/10 9-Inch LCD Viewfinder
Open Your Eyes to a Brighter View

This 9-inch flat panel LCD viewfinder is the gateway to a bright new world. High quality, HD, and with incredible brightness and contrast, it's aesthetically pleasing and pulls no punches.

The LDK 5309/10 is great for camera operators but also live event audiences. It comes with an articulated mounting bracket which allows you to move the viewfinder in many positions including straight behind the camera – nice touch, huh?

Attention control freaks: Although you can't do everything at once, this viewfinder gets you close. Use the viewfinder controls to call up the camera system menu. You can even use it to assign what various camera controls and viewfinder the operator uses.

Some like it hot: You can crank up the viewfinder color temperature or cool it right down depending on your personal preference. You can also enjoy the creative freedom of matching the color temperature of your display to that of the scene.
