randolph_carlisle Posted December 25, 1997 Share Posted December 25, 1997 It is like a prism (90) but it uses a mirror instead. The image is reversed, left to right, but upright. It is much lighter than a prism and less expensive. It is not quite as bright but it does OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morthcam Posted December 27, 1997 Share Posted December 27, 1997 I think that the porro-finder gives a laterally correct view -- it "flips" the image you see in the WLF to make the view the same that you see. I personally found it too dark and dim, and a regular prism finder a great improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
