I think people are obsessed with resolution as an indication of
usefulness in an EVF.

as they should be, just as they are for normal displays, along with
high refresh rate.

I was doing a lot of pro videography in the '70s,
and all of the cameras had EVFs at around 480x720 as well as manual
lenses (even when the lenses had motorized focus controls). However,
their UIs that indicated exposure and focus were fast and functional.

those displays were crap.

I believe that you folks might be amazed if you try the EVF in the Fujifilm
X-T3, or any of the MF GFX 50s.

what's the resolution (actually ppi) and refresh rate on those?


X-T3 EVF:
0.5 inch. 3.69 million dots OLED Color Viewfinder
Coverage of viewing area vs. capturing area: 100%
Lag time 0.005 sec
Refresh rate 100fps


in other words, about 10x as many pixels as that 1970s era 720 x 480
display (345600 pixels).


Yup!
