Hi all

I have seen the light and am now awaiting my new gf1 with 20mm to be delivered :D

I have already bagged another lens and really would like to fit an optical viewfinder to it - as well as giving me a vf to look through (which i prefer) they also look really cool :cool:

Has anyone fitted one to a gf1 and if so, which one and why?

Oh and pictures would be great too

Thanks
 
Hi

I have recently also just got the GF1 with the 20mm and 14-45mm lens after the first weekend I decided to buy the view finder as I was finding it difficult to see the screen sometimes in bright sunlight also was taking some low angel shots and thought it would make it easier. Think I use it with and without about the same. As far as I thought there was only one view finder you could use the LVF1 unless the olympus one fits. It is a bit expensive but just shopped around until I found one at a semi resonable price :) Really enjoy using the camera. I have taken some shots of the viewfinder on the camera link to camera equipement.

That was more than I paid for my Panasonic one, at least you have live view and all the camera information that you get on the screen, and can be used with different lenes.

I did say it wasn't cheap :)

The view though is a million times better than through the lvf and the OP did say they were looking for an optical finder
