In the video they make a point of pooh-poohing someone who suggested that what they are using is not an optical viewfinder, and it isn't, not as the term has always been used (a true optical path...

Thanks David.
Am I wrong in thinking that "standard" 60 frame video mode (i.e. before we had choices like 24p) was effectively shot with a 360 degree shutter, i.e. none? As the capture of 60...
