Hi Everybody,
Has anyone ever tried a Voigtlander Turnit on a Barnack style camera? How good is this viewfinder? I have a Canon IIf and A Leica IIIa that would benefit from an accesory finder. All I know about the Turnit is that it has views for 35 50 and 100mm. Do the views "zoom" or does it operate only as a mask? So many questions! Thanks.
Steve

Dear Steve,
Bulky. I wouldn't. (And I have).
It revolves (hence 'Turnit') for the 'telescope/wrong end of telescope' effect, and it uses masks.
Cheers,
R.

Thanks Roger. I will look elsewhere. I may bite the bullet and get the brightline type finders or the varifocal type.
