Ta, Guys, in general...

1. Don: Woe, that the SD1M (and others) don't have LV. The view is so dim thru the VF, and my sighting position so contorted, that I might as well be scrubbing beneath a floor.

2. 'Tog: I usually don't need to take multiple shots, and when it doesn't work it's ann ying. Of course, if I wanted a smaller image, the AF without the 2X converter would be crisp.

3. Jeffry, are you saying that SCPro gives an image beFORe shooting? I thought it was only after. If the latter, it would be no good to me. Could you please confirm.

4. Ted, I'm trying to  magnify the real image thru the viewfinder, not the back screen.

I know that I can hook up the SD1M in playback mode to a TV via HDMI, but I've yet to try if it sends a "live" feed in shooting mode. Of course, I doubt it would work.

So, an optical aid to clip onto the viewfinder, or a mini-camera to WiFi to the phone. Of the latter, I can only find very wide angle ones, so basically useless

To reiterate, this is to provide a solution for the SD1M (and would be applicable to the SD9~15 range).
