Electronic viewfinders in still photography
Electronic viewfinders have the following advantages over optical viewfinders: ...

There are some newer digital cameras on the market that are fitted with an electronic viewfinder. These are in fact very small LCD screens (often just 0.5' diagonally) which project a live view of the scene as seen ...
Electronic viewfinder
Possibly the NEX-7's standout feature is its built-in electronic viewfinder. You might be forgiven for thinking that an EVF in a body this size would have to be small and low quality, but precisely the opposite is true.

Electronic viewfinder (EVF). An LCD located inside a digital camera and used to provide a view of the subject based on the image generated by the camera's sensor.
Electronic viewfinder
The electronic viewfinder consists of a small LCD which displays the picture seen though the lens, just like with a regular SLR.
EVILs (Electronic Viewfinder Interchangeable), a subset of MILCs, likewise lack a DSLR’s mirror reflex system of optical viewing but use interchangeable lenses—and in addition to having an LCD monitor, ...

EVF: Electronic Viewfinder. A new addition to digital cameras. A small LCD screen which is used in place of optical viewfinders, and usually shows the same information as the LCD on the back the camera.
EVF - Electronic ViewFinder, a small color LCD with a magnified lens that functions as an eye level viewfinder. Usually found on video camcorders but they have been showing up on super-zoom digicams where optical viewfinders are impractical.
New OLED electronic viewfinder
The new OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) electronic viewfinder in this camera sure has people talking. It offers a 100% view, and is considereably larger than optical viewfinders on competing cameras.

[Do not confuse an electronic viewfinder (EVF) point and shoot camera with a true mirror-and-optics SLR. The EVF camera is sending light continuously to the sensor and feeding the sensor output to a little TV screen on top of the camera.
bridge camera - originally a SLR with a fixed zoom lens, nowadays a medium-size digital wide-range zoom camera with electronic viewfinder (EVF), intermediate between the compact camera and SLR ...
With those you really have no choice but to frame your shot with the LCD screen (or the electronic viewfinder on EVF models, which is really an eye-level version of the same thing). So why on DSLRs all of a sudden?
Point-and-shoots themselves break down into two types - those with electronic viewfinders (EVF's) and those equipped with optical ones (actually there's a third type - those that feature only an LCD monitor).
Some Fuji digital cameras are using their EVF - electronic viewfinder - instead of the more typical optical viewfinder you'll find almost everywhere else (a viewfinder is what you look through to take your picture).
The downside is that the camera's standard "electronic viewfinder" (EVF) displays a video image on both the LCD and in the "peephole" viewfinder instead of a live view.
Others replace the optical viewfinder with an electronic viewfinder (EVF). Electronic viewfinders are also used in camcorders. Choosing between an EVF or traditional viewfinder comes down to personal preference.
Here's how (this is easier with an electronic viewfinder (EVF): 1. Spread your legs about shoulder width, dominant leg in front (if you're right-handed, right leg, etc.). 2.
" Speaking to the technical people at Fujifilm, I learned that Fujifilm has *deliberately* made the display in the electronic viewfinder (EVF) *brighter* than the actual subject, meaning you can compose images in relatively low light, ...
With a compact camera, the viewfinder mechanism instead just tries to estimate what light will reach the sensor, so it's potentially less accurate. Compact cameras may also use what's called an electronic viewfinder (EVF), ...
Test shots from Sony's latest SLT model, the Sony Alpha A77. This advanced 24.3 megapixel, 12 fps shooter looks set to change the minds of many when it comes to electronic viewfinders and transluscent mirror technology.

However, since they lack the mirror mechanism, there is no optical viewfinder, though some models offer either built-in or optional electronic viewfinders (EVF).
the optical viewfinder being offset from the taking lens, does not "see" exactly the same field of view, often resulting in a subject being partly cut off. The effect does not happen when using the LCD screen, cameras with Electronic Viewfinders, ...
Another tip, especially with smaller cameras, is to hold your eye up to the optical viewfinder to capture the image, rather than the electronic viewfinder - this will not only help you see exactly what your capturing, ...
The new Digital Interchangeable Lens camera (DIL) substitutes the mirror with a high resolution display screen and the optical viewfinder with a high resolution electronic viewfinder.
However since digital SLR-like cameras do not have the mirror and reflex systems found in real SLR, what you see is not through the optics (TTL), What you see in the viewfinder is an electronic made picture (EVF - electronic viewfinder).
