A prized piece of equipment that all digital panoramic shooters would like to get their hands on is a viewfinder that comes with owning a fix lens film system so they could preview scenes prior to setting up and shooting them.

Well once you see this tutorial you wont need to want one. When owning the G617 with the fixed camera viewfinder Matt Lauder got sick and tired of having to pull the camera out seach time to view the scene to see if it worked or not. So he devised a simple way to preview every scene without needing the camera.
