It's under $100. The Contax G viewfinder is much pricier - local dealers didn't have them in the price book, so I ordered one directly from Contax (Yashica) USA in New Jersey. Expensive - $245 plus shipping. > > > John > > P.S. the two shops I saw the inexpensive finder are Camera Bug and Adolf Gasser, both in San Francisco. > > > > At 12:35 AM 05/29/1999 +0800, Dr. Joseph Yao wrote: > >Bob Keene/Karen Shehade wrote: > >> > >> B.D. and all- > >> > >> sorry B.D., I've no info for you.....but, > >> ontop of B.D.
