Minolta Angle Finder V fits EOS fine

[JohnMWright]

Not a queston, just an FYI. I have some old Minolta stuff, and

included in that pile of treasure is the Angle Finder V. I noticed

that the EOS eyepieces are a similar size to Minolta, so I tried it.

It fits pretty well. Not snug, but tight enough that I'm not afraid it

will fall off.

John, which camera did you try it on?

The V and Vn are a perfect fit for all bodies that don't use the eye start feature (to the best of my knowledge). Certainly my Vn works a treat on the 1V and 1DMII. It is a tight fit, and a tiny amount of paint flaked from the anglefinder when I first fitted it, but that was no problem. The Vn anglefinder is the current model and features 2x and 1x magnification. Naturally you can see all viewfinder info.

 

Cheers,

I bought one last week for my 20D. It's much cheaper than Angle Finder C but it won't fit on my EOS 30 which has ECF.

Hi, FWIW I`ve been using the angle finder from my Olympus OM system on the D30 it is 1.2x ~ 2.5 fits well but its not tight on the 20D but with care won``t fall off.Hope it helps some

PS the OM has a solid metal bracket and probably make a tighter fit on the 20d with gentle persuation. Still its not loose.

Vincent, I have the Canon 20D.
