They're OK. Some other decent >finders include the Soviet Turret Finder (good), the Tewe Zoom Finder >(better), I stammer, owning, as I do, several copies of each. The TEWE finder is okay, but, in general, the SPS clone of the 436/70 Zeiss Ikon VF is superior. It also can be had, new, for about 1/2 or less of the freight a "collectible" TEWE will bear. But some of the TEWE's run out to 200mm, which is helpful when I am using that 2X FED tele-converter with an 85mm lens. The ASTRO BERLIN unit does this, as well, plus it has, unlike the TEWE, a diopter adjustment. Marc msmall@roanoke.infi.net FAX: +540/343-7315 Cha robh bas fir gun ghras fir!
