Flipbac Camera Screen Mirror

When taking photos at a difficult angle on a digital camera it is often a problem to see the screen correctly. By not being able to see the screen you then have the problem that the subject might be missing completely or not where you want them to be in the shot. Flipbac aims to tackle this problem.

The Flipbac is a small mirror measuring 3″ (to match a 3″ LCD screen on a camera) and attaches to the bottom of the LCD screen. When taking pictures you flip the cover open and then use the mirrors reflection of the screen to get that perfect shot. Only a 3″ version is currently available although a 2.5″ version will be released shortly.
