If a person could talk P+S Technik into rebuilding existing legacy "Evolution" optical viewfinders into a form usable on the RED One for PL-Mount lenses, would there be any takers? It would not be cheap. The Epic and Scarlet have apparently a greater distance between the sensor and front of casework compared to the original RED One. This virtually eliminates any chance for these cameras of a third-party optical finder without an optical extender stage interposed to move the PL-Mount flange forward to allow the split to pass up in front of the casework. My imagining would be that a 30% to 50% mirror split to the finder might have a collateral benefit of reducing the light passed to the sensor without need for as much ND in the path for bright outdoors daylight environments. - Just a thought......
