Can you view what you're shooting thru the lens eye as well as the screen?

Yes you can. The screen also folds out and rotates so you can take photos of yourself and see what you are doing rather than just aiming and hoping.

Gayle,No you cannot view through both the lens eye and the screen. When the screen is open the lens eye is off and vice/versa.

You can look through the lens eye or look at the screen - it is not feasible to do both due to the design. The screen shows what you need to see and is very good at helping you focus on whatever it is you wish to capture.

Yes, you can flip the screen so you can see yourself while you're in front of the lens. You can also put it on "timer" so you don't have to be holding the camera when you take the picture. Better than a cell phone for selfies.

All LCD screens suffer from bright sunlight reflection. However, the greater the pixels or clarity will improve your ability to see the screen with greater ease. Best solution? Purchase a SLR with thru-the-lens viewing.

There is no viewfinder, but I think the screen is easy on the eyes. Also, you can adjust the brightness of the display. Speaking of vision issues, I have to wear reading glasses for things up close. I should wear bifocals, but I am chilling on replacing an expensive pair I just lost recently. I will probably going to graduated contacts. Enough of that. I sometimes do not have the readers handy when I shoot, and things look blurry - mainly in low light situations. I have learned that I can trust the camera's auto focus, and just have to make sure I have the zoom and framing I want. Very rarely do I come away with less than sharp lines, unless conditions are such that I expected them. However, I have been pleasantly surprised in most cases by the sharp lines this camera produces when there should be everything but.

Not entirely clear on what you mean by "optics", but the viewfinder will magnify the image on the LCD screen, while still acting as a "shroud".

You should be able to do this, but why would you want to? Focusing would be difficult and it will drastically reduce the amount of light getting through the lenses. Then there is the increased motion factor.

I shoot with a 70-D and yes it shows up on the info in the camera, in the view finder and the LCD screen.

Yes. There is an adjustment next to the viewfinder that allows for fine tuning of the focus.

Nope! You have to press the button on the panel to view images. Hope that answered your question.

No each camera has its own screen. I wish I could see all at one time but no.

I never tried looking a a computer screen with the lens before but, I tried it just now for you and it seemed to do the job well. Your eye can be very close to the lens, right up on it really. Hope this helped you out. PS. I really like this light.

At this time I cannot, I would suggest reading the information on the lens, I believe it tells you.

Absolutely. This is how I use it although with different primes - 2.0 and 1.2. Regardless, you'll find yourself seeing through a much nicer viewfinder which I find useful even if I'm auto focusing or not. Here's how I see it: this focusing screen should have come standard with my body. It's that good.

yes you can just push the button of the left side of the view finder to look through the lens

No it doesn't. But I had no problem using the screen. It's such a compact camera, it almost seems like a hassle to look through a viewfinder.

I don't think anything. They're hard for the camera to "see through." I used manual focus.

There's a focusing dial to the left of the eye-piece, as you look at the back of the camera. Dialing it should give you a reasonable image.
