Hello,

I'm working on a hobby project and need to fit a tiny camera to the viewfinder on my camera for remote viewing. The camera needs to be placed fairly close to the viewfinder to save space. I have not bought it yet and I need to know if it will work optically.

The cameras focuses from 1 m to infinity and have a h fov of 62 degress and a v fov of 49 degrees. Basically can I get a sharp picture if placed closely to the viewfinder? Say, from 0cm to 5cm. The optics is much smaller than the viewfinder.

Thanks.

How about something like this:
