When I use a camera with an optical viewfinder, I feel more connected to my subject. Sure all the modern pro cameras are using EVFs now, and their performance is excellent, but I do think it’s a more disconnected shooting experience.

Think about the optical chain.

EVF: Subject —-> real time digital processor —-> screen —-> shooters eye

OVF: subject —-> mirror/glass —-> shooters eye

My hipster take is that makes shooting with an OVF a more “pure” experience. Not that it matters from the subjects POV though..

Seems like a cool camera. I think I will pick one up for my daughter.

For those struggling to find tech specs: Apparently [1] it has a 2MP CMOS sensor, F2.4 aperture, 24mm equivalent wide-angle lens, and shoots a resolution of 1920x1080.
