============================================================

    No.  It was the Viso 1, and its predecessor that was
deeper.  The Viso 2 & 3 will both need the "OUBIO"

    And I do not think a Viso 2 will fit an M5 or the
taller M6s and M7, unless he uses the vertical finder.  In
fact, I doubt if a Viso 2 will fit any camera with M6
windows.  I suspect that as you rotate a Viso 2 to mount it
it will hit the front of the top cover.

    I have doubts but do not know whether a Viso 3 will fit
any ot the bodies with M6 windows.  And again, it it did,
it would probably only fit with a vertical finder.

    If someone on the list does know, please let me know, 
I am now curious.
