Color Coding

Adjustable Focusing Ring & Rubber Eyecup
The eyepiece focusing ring can be adjusted to sharpen the image at any given setting, much like the viewfinder adjustment on your camera. The collapsed rubber eyecup prevents scratching your glasses.

This viewfinder was bought on the spur of the moment from one of my visits to Arri, and has only been used once.

It's aesthetically, physically and optically flawless - In "as new" condition.

Perfect for composing your shots prior to shooting, or for relaying your "vision" to your DP.

Everything in the photographs is included, i.e., viewfinder, lens cap, neck-cord & pouch.

All photos taken by me, personally, on my 5D.

Asking price is £500, OBO.

I've put this up on eBay already, but if anyone is interested here, please let me know. I can either PM you the auction link, or take the auction down.

DD.
