Allnm Posted March 31, 2011 Share #21  Posted March 31, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have a 1937 Leintz Vidom finder and a Russian Kiev turret finder. The Vidom looks nicer but the image you see is reversed. The turret finder has a great view but is quite tall. I prefer the turret.  Turret  Vidom   The finders look bigger than they are because of the camera angle.  Allan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danielsan Posted March 31, 2011 Share #23 Â Posted March 31, 2011 wow, they both look kind of wierd and strange but i like it, i have the feeling that ppl will look in disbelief when i would come around with such a thing but maybe that is the nice thing about it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalic mud Posted March 31, 2011 Share #24 Â Posted March 31, 2011 What about the D-Lux 4 viewfinder to the X1? Sorry if this was asked before. Â thats one of the finders i own. its a 24mm but also has markings for 35mm. so its very handy as i can use it in my D-lux4 and my X1. and only 1mm out.

Backpage Posted April 1, 2011 Share #25 Â Posted April 1, 2011 I have the Leica viewfinder which I use all the time here in (mostly) sunny southern California, but I'm curious about the others mentioned. Do any/all have a rubber ring to prevent scratching a user's eyeglasses? That was a very important feature for me...that and what's not to like about things milled out of solid brass.

Guest Posted April 1, 2011 Share #31  Posted April 1, 2011 Hi Lambda,  Hw d slboo comapre to Voitlander VF? Your one look quite in good condition.  hi,sbloo is much bigger,both a nice options. what i like that the voigtlander´s imageframes are on each side halved. so it´s easy to find the focuspoint in the center....  so ihave to brand the back of the hood,which i see thru the sbloo,the middle ,set my fokuspoint deeper and so i ´m able to find the focus very accurate with the sploo  the sploo is cult, nice made unique but expensive and bulky, but it fits perfekt imo cause my x1 is not so small-sized;)  ...sorry for my bad english:rolleyes:  Welcome, dear visitor!

davidhunternyc Posted April 3, 2011 Share #33  Posted April 3, 2011 I use a round metal Voigtländer 35 mm viewfinder which costs around $160-170 (new) and is available both in black and silver chrome. It looks great but is smaller than Leica's 36 mm viewfinder and shows (at infinity) considerably more than what you then get on the image. But all in all it seems a good solution.  I too have the Voigtlander viewfinder and I'm frustrated with it. I don't like composing my photos with the LCD screen but the Voigtlander isn't accurate and I'm never quite sure what the camera is capturing during shooting and it is difficult for me to adjust too. For me, this frustration has me looking quite seriously at the Fuji X100. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
