USB-C Accessories for the Canon C400? Where are they?

So Canon added a USB-C port on the C400 that allows a video signal to be transmitted via the port. But there are currently 0 accessories available for this port outside of the built-in Canon LCD that comes with the camera. Where are all the C400 USB-C accessories???

What accessories were you hoping / looking for exactly?

Well, Canon removed the rear EVF option that was available on the C300 III and the C500 II and didn't replace it with anything. The current on-board LCD on the C400 is not bright enough to see in direct, noon day sunlight. I was expecting to at least get an EVF option or a brighter/bigger monitor option that could utilize the USB-C port (similar to how Blackmagic offers different accessories for their USB port).

Fingers crossed SmallHD makes a larger daylight viewable monitor like they have for RED...

Yeah, at this point I'd take any monitor/evf accessory from any manufacturer. I thought having a USB-C port on this camera would've opened up a ton of doors for exciting new EVFs or monitors. I'm surprised Canon hasn't released an EVF honestly, considering the C300 models have always featured EVFs, and the C400 is supposed to sit right above the C300 and below the C500.
