A SIMPLE SOLUTION FOR CAMERAS LACKING A FLIP-OUT LCD DISPLAY
Introducing the Flipbac Angle Viewfinder and LCD Screen Protector for Digital Cameras
Vancouver, BC, Canada Flipbac Innovations announces the launch
of its new Flipbac Angle Viewfinder and LCD Screen Protector for digital cameras. Flipbac –
a dual hinged mirror that easily adheres to the back of most point-and-shoot or digital SLR
cameras with live view – reflects the live preview that is being caught on the camera’s LCD
screen. This allows the user to take pictures from ground-level, waist level or high overhead,
and still see the camera’s LCD. The dual hinge opens vertically or horizontally to more than
180-degrees allowing the user to see the image in landscape and portrait positions.
In the past, many point and shoot digital cameras had a built in fold-out LCD screen enabling
photographers to see the LCD screen from many positions. However, in recent years digital
camera have become smaller and cheaper. In most cases, in order to reduce size and cost
of digital cameras, manufacturers removed the fold-out LCD function. Many photographers,
both amateur and professional, have been waiting for this feature to return. The Flipbac fills
this need. This camera accessory will help photographers take even better images: shoot
photos without kneeling, take candid portraits without hiding their face behind a camera, or
capture a classic portrait without intimidating their subject.
