Viewfinder is a Tumblr theme for photographers, with large images and film-frame numbering. Quiet captions sit within a gallery layout where Jost and Source Serif 4 bring together simple lettering and serif detail.

It supports all Tumblr post types, along with reblog trails and tags. Search and pages are included, as is an ask box. Switch Dark Room and Grid View on or off. You can also toggle Film Grade and set your Roll Label. Choose background and text colours for both the standard and Dark Room palettes, with accent colours adjustable for each.
