awesome! I guess the price of Canon gear has dropped recently since someone started buying Leica instead

Now if only I could find a similar deal on an 85 and/or 100 finder.

Hi Joe,
I needed and have now got an 85 and a 100 finder but they are the older narrow tube type with manual parralax. The finder which came with my black 135 is a brightline type with auto paralax. It is so much nicer to use so I am looking for a similar tpe in 85 and 100 and then I can offer the others up at rock bottom prices.

Well done, Joe. My notion of an eBay win is getting out with your sanity intact. Note
that I'm not saying I did it...

That is a nice finder.
It is the one with the parallax correction that couples to the V/VI series Shoe?

Yes, this is the version like mine. The little ball-bearing is a pickup for the parallax correction. I would put it in the topmost position for most work.
I also think the mask could be changed out for other focal length. I suspect it is the same finder for the 85 and 100, different mask. I suspect there are more 135's around.

I love to muse how I've been conditioned to "winning" on eBay; I "win" if I'm the fool that paid the most!!!

Joe,
At least for today, flush with a $41.00 finder, you're the exception to the "fool that paid the most" rule. Congrats on a good score!

yeah, but remember, i'm also the guy that (over) paid 57 bucks for a hood (i think) cause i got all caught up in a bidding war.
