Does anyone know if this viewfinder (the expensive colour one recommended for the PDW700) would work on an F350? I would consider buying it if it does.

Many thanks

I don't think it will, but will check today when I talk to the guys at Sony.

No, it will not work on the PDW-F3xx series.

The HDVF-C35W will only work on PDW-700, PDW-F800, HDW-650, HDW-790.

Works also on most studio cameras from the HDC-xxxx series, HSC-300, HXC-100 and on the F23.

confirmed - the C35 and the future C3... do NOT work on the F3xx.

So the dxf20w is the only choice or you must turn to external screens...

The new Viewfinder:

HDVF C30WR

Sony : New HDVF-C30WR HD Viewfinder Unveiled : Czech republic (http://www.sony.cz/biz/view/ShowPressRelease.action?section=SB+SS+ALL+Press+Center&pressrelease=1235736135374&site=biz_en_CZ)

Its slightly more expensive than C35 but is exactly half HD resolution, has some new features etc.

It looks like it is using a smaller color LCD, 2.7" vs. 3.5" on the older model.
