The DR-6 Right angle viewfinder...

I'd just like to say that if anyone is on the fence about getting the DR-6 Right angle viewfinder...

Go out and get it!

I got it for some worms eye view shots for my architectural photos, but it recently came in handy for some portraits I did and candid shots for street photography.

It's one of those "Sure glad I've got one of these" accessories.

I looked up the price - $200? Wow! Anybody aware of a 3rd party version?

Eduard,

I bought DR-3 and DR-4 in ebay. They were about $30-$50 each. With an adapter DK-22 ($5, in ebay too!), they just work like the $200 DR-6 then. Here the link for more information about them:

Which right-angle finder can I use on my camera?

Tu.

Great tip!

Makes me wonder why the DR-6 is so expensive. Maybe it's the 2x magnification? Anyway I'm gonna try out the other models since they're less expensive and may bring the same results. Plus the DR-6 only works with the square viewfinders while the other models can work with both with an adapter.
