which one do you think????

Any thoughts or experiences with these different loupes?

I have a 7d and use a z-finder 3x with that and I really like it. But I am getting a rebel t2i as a back up camera and trying to spend as little as possible but still get decent stuff for it.

150.00 is the most I would want to spend on a loupe so please let me know all your thoughts on this. There may be a cheap loupe that is great that isn't one of these three please let me know.

cheers and thanks in advance

I'm a little worried about the magnetic element dealing with SD cards and stuff like that. It just doesn't seem wise to have any type of magnets around. I believe the viewfinder is held on by magnets. Thoughts on that. I heard also there is a bit of banding on the Carry Speed but it isn't too bad. Anyone else using any of these three viewfinders care to chime in or using a different cheap viewfinder. Did you compare the Carry Speed with that LCDVF guy?

Yeah it is held by magnets but it i haven't had any problems with that, and it makes it good if you wanna take it off or put it on in a quick hurry, its also quite cheap, and its basically the same as the lcdvf except cheaper, and i think theres a cheesycam article on it.
 
i have one just like the carry speed. the price cant be beat for a loupe and it does its job, my only complaint is it falling off from time to time and its easy to accidentally knock it off. i also had a problem with both magnetic frames peeling off the camera, had to super glue the frame to my screen protector.
 
I have a viewfinder that I found brand new on ebay for $50. Same design as the name brands, but without logos. It to has the magnetic frame. I've had no problems whatsoever with it. Highly recommended. A quick search will pull it up
