'''TTV''' is the abbreviation for "through the viewfinder photography". It's a widespread idea to revive old photographic optics without needing film. Therefore a digital camera is focused onto the viewfinder ocular of an old [[box camera]] with a big bright viewfinder. Thus images can be made which give an idea of how once our forefathers have seen the World through the [[viewfinder]]s of their cameras.
