Replacement/Source for Horseman Binocular Reflex Viewer?


Recommended Posts

It appears that the Horseman Folding Binocular Viewer has been discontinued, as it is not

availible from either the new North American distributor, nor the old European one. That's a

shame because A> this seems to be the prefered viewer everyone retrofit to even non-

Horseman cameras and B> I wanted one. I've checked the obvious places (and some less

obvious ones) but they seem to have vanished off the earth. Is there an adequate

replacement anyone can recommend of similar quality and price? Or a vendor

who still has these for sale you could point me to? Thanks in advance.

The build quality on the Toyo viewer is OK, but not great, based on the one I've seen. The

Toyo was a good starter camera for me, but not one I really *enjoyed* using. The Toyo gear

all seems similarly clunky to me. The Horseman gear seems elegant in comparison, though

not a slick as, say, the Sinar (at three times the price).

 

KEH, and the other usual suspects, have viewers that are slightly damaged, but no new or

unused. I'd like to start with something relatively untouched, and bang it up myself...

I know that this message was from a year ago but I am selling one. I was just trawling the net trying to find another one to see what price they fetch before putting it on ebay (together with my 54FA). Respond if still interested or any information as to what it's worth would be good (I can't find another either.)
