[Leica] Hasselblad question to George L

[George Lottermoser]

Any finder that fits a 500, 500 C, 500 CM, would work with my CF-39 (I don't have the CFV-39) back. I believe the same would hold true for the CFV backs; as the backs all have a "low" profile where things may interfere with a finder. These backs are not like the old polaroid backs.

I suppose one or more of these backs may be too "thick" and make it difficult for one to get one's eye to one of the 90 degree view finders. I don't know about that. I've only ever used the waist level, 45 degree prisms, and currently the magnifying hood (which provides the best focusing - for me).

a note off the iPad, George
