Item Description
This is the original Ref A right angle finder. I've added a rubber eye cup to the finder which can be easily removed but I just found it worked even better in bright light.

A must have for close up and macro work or where fine detail focusing is important. I've used it quite a bit over the years and got it back when I had a PZ-1P. At that time it cost over $400 CAD ($429.00 if I remember correctly). They have removed the selling price but the last time I saw it listed on B&H's site, it was 369.00 USD. I can't find any recent Ebay sales or anywhere else as it's been disco'd for awhile. I remember one selling on Ebay back in the spring for just over $300.00.

Much better unit than the Chinese knock off versions. I'm only selling to fund a couple of personal issues here.

Optics are clean and clear. No issues at all with the unit. I don't know if I still have the box and I'll look to see if it's available. If so I'll include it.

I'll post some pics later today.

Pics You'll notice that the rubber cup is slightly misshapen but that's just from having it in the camera bag. Still fits just fine against the eye.Attachment 47023
