Hy6 45° vs 90° viewfinder experience?/question
« on: March 10, 2009, 11:26:58 am »

Can anybody of you guys comment on the above viewfinders?
I do a lot with the waistlevelfinder but here and then I would like to additionale have the 45 or 90 degree finder.
I hear the 45 is a prism while the 90 has a mirror.
Which one do you prefer and why?
Thanks a lot, Tom

Danke geesbert,
do you use the 45-finder often vs the waist level finder?

The 90 degree finder as shown at Photo Plus East seem to be more magnified and brighter
compared to the 45 degree prism.
However, there was a bit of distortion (due to its porro/mirror design?)
Perhaps that's why it is delayed (being improved on?)
