I'm thinking of using video glasses instead of the viewfinder / lcd display with liveview , for my D300(s) cams. I think it would be quite usefull if i could do Makro focussing that way. SInce it is possible to use liveview connected to a tv-screen / monitor through the HDMI connection of the D300 / D300S i guess that it should also work to use one of those "Video Glasses" for this purpose giving the image of a 55cm+ wide tv screen for viewfinder...

But, it seems hard to find a proper usefull set of Video glasses with a good screen resolution which can be used this way, hence my questions :

- Does have anybody out here have any experiance with this ?
- If so, which set did / do you use for this )

Hi,

These glasses have been around for a while. Many people have tried to do what you are saying, but no one seems to be doing it.

My best,

Mike

Thx Mike,

I'm scanning the web for this, and a supplier has promissed me to get back to me with suggestions..

I think that the main reason that not many people persui this yet, is that until recently there were no affordable video goggles available with a good resolution,
But .. it seems this is slowly changing now with the 3d hype rising, for which this kind of hardware is perfectly suited, but this demands a good resolution now...
