As you know, the SQ6 viewfinder is to the side and does not show what you are actually shooting because of it which makes it difficult to frame correctly - is there a proper workaround for this?

For the moment, all i do is tilt the camera slightly to the left (because the viewfinder is to the right) but that is also an unreliable method. Any idea?

That is a drawback of the SQ6. I'm not sure there really is a good workaround, but if anyone has one I'd love to know too.

the best workaround I can think of is to put a sticker over the estimated part of the viewfinder or to draw a dotted line
