Bronica etrs metered prisms- can viewing lens be adjusted (diopter)

[raymond___k_osmotherly]

I have a non-metered prism on my Bronica etrs. I need a +2 diopter

viewing lens but I consider, for what they are, they are incredibly

expensive -here in Australia $70 (= US $49) Also the strongest made

by Bronica is 1.5 diopters. I am also considering getting the metered

prism. Somewhere in a post I recall a reference to one of the metered

prisms have a viewing lens which can be altered according to the

required diopter of the user. I would be grateful if someone who has

an etrs prism could give me details of whether this is the case and

which model prism.I'd rather spend a bit more and get a used metered

prism if I going to have to spend that amount for just the lens.

If memory serves, the standard prism and the AEII use interchangable eyepieces while the AEIII prism has an adjustable from -2.5 to +1.5.

Be carefull..the AEIII prism finder has what you need , but is a darker prism finder, than the normal prism finder or the AEII prism Finder.}

Hope you have solve your problem by now.

Bear in mind that the standard diopter eyepiece in Bronica viewfinders (WLF, Prism E & E-II) is -1.5 (that's minus 1.5). So work from there in terms of your prescription. The range of diopters for these viewfinders is +1.5 to -4.5 - AtH
