ABSTRACT:
A view finder for a camera includes an eye piece and an optical system having an optical axis to direct light from a certain view field towards the eye piece. A reflecting device directs light from outside the view field through the optical system at a given angle relative to the optical axis, and a sub-prism is arranged relative to the optical system to direct the light from outside the view field toward the eye piece after the light passes through the optical system. The sub-prism has a light incident plane, a light reflecting plane and a light emitting plane all of which are arranged so that after the light from outside the view field passes through the optical system, it enters the sub-prism through the light incident plane. The light is thereafter reflected from the reflecting plane so that it leaves the sub-prism from the light emitting plane.
