Camera overlay

Hi, I would like to know if there is a way to create custom camera overlays? I often use the built in 3 x 3 box one, but I have some more of my own I would like to use to help scene composition. Anyone know of a way to do this easily?

You can use a plane primitive parented to the camera, and scaled to fit the aspect ratio, with the overlay as its opacity map and its diffuse colour set to contrast with the scene - though this may not work well with scenes focussed on elements with transparency maps of their own, which tend to end up with higher priority (using IPR in 3Delight or the nVidia Iray preview mode for Iray will avoid that issue).
