"How to keep live-view on during exposure"


US
          

Any thoughts on keeping the live view on during long still photography exposures? I make many long (1-4 sec.) and bulb exposures of moving subjects and keeping live-view on would greatly help. I have looked for hot shoe viewfinders and can not find the right focal lengths.

You're asking if the camera can be actively capturing an exposure while still displaying the image on the back of the screen? It just simply can't do it. Why do you need to see the image while exposing it? How would it help with a bulb exposure?
