In SLRs, the viewfinder sees the subject of the picture through the lens by an angled mirror inside the camera that flips up when you fire the shutter, directing light onto the film...or I guess a chip...I'm not quite sure if it's the same with a digital SLR. When I worked at Minolta, film cameras were still the thing to have.
