Viewfinder Right Angle Viewfinder with 1x - 2X Magnification for Nikon Canon Pentax Sony Minolta Samsung Fuji Olympus and Other DSLR and SLR Cameras

The wife love it..

I was pleased with this product. It comes with a set of 6 viewfinder adapters, which are labelled as to camera brand and a listing of models. As another reviewer mentioned, not all of the models are listed but it's enough to get you close...the one labelled Nikon D series fit my D5100 even though that model wasn't specifically called out. The product comes with a small accessory bag as well.My only criticism (cost it one star) is that the focus, which is achieved by rotating the barrel of the finder, is not detented, therefore as others have pointed out there might be an issue having the focus drift by accidentally nudging it after it is set. This would be easily corrected in daytime however with an astrophotography setup where manual focus is critical and you are dealing with a very dim finder anyway this might be a problem. You can always focus the finder on the lighted information panel in your DSLR; however there is definitely some edge distortion so a center focus point would be much better. Having "click" detents or a locking ring would prevent this.The tilt function does indeed have clicks every 45 degrees.Despite the focus issue this is still a very useable product. And it definitely beats sitting on the ground looking up through your camera and telescope when using the DSLR as a primary focus setup!

Just got this viewer for astrophotography with my Canon 7DII, and tried it out on a daytime subject to see how it worked. First, none of the six attachment bags showed this camera model, so it was trial and error before I found one that fit my camera. When I tried to look through it to manually focus my camera, nothing was in focus, and I had to play with the diopter ring to get it close to focus, and then had to iteratively adjust the focus and diopter ring to finally get good focus. The instructions stated to use autofocus first and then use the diopter ring to bring into focus. This isn't always possible when looking at a dim star field. Then I switched from 1x to 2x, and it was out of focus again, and I had to iteratively do the whole process over again. Other than not having to get on my knees to look through the camera viewfinder without this attachment, it doesn't seem to be of that much value. Guess I will have to manually focus on the camera itself using live view, and then assume all following adjustments with this right angle attachment are diopter adjustments.

I asked if any users had installed this on a Nikon D7200 and received several positive replies from users as well as the seller. So I purchased this viewer to aid in composing at difficult positions. The viewer has click locks as the viewer is rotated and stays in place at the desired position. The image is clear and fills a full image from the viewfinder of the camera at 1x. At 2x the view is enlarged so some of the image is cut off but not very much and it is still usable. Focusing was not an issue as I set the viewfinder focus to a point that the camera information was sharp. This made focusing the lens easier as I knew the internal image was good.My only concern is not with the viewfinder itself but with anything in the hot shoe that is higher than 1.5 inches. In my case, I use a YONGNUO YN560-TX flash transmitter which is in the way. Fortunately I also have a Yongnuo YN-622N-TX and RF605 which is low profile and not a problem.I'm happy with this purchase.

Item look solid and work well on Nikon d800 and d700 cameras.I recommend.
