Digital camera reviews of Nikon DR-6 Right Angle Viewfinder (Rectangular Slip-On)

Digital camera Review: Better performance than I expected.
Summary: 5 Stars

I made this purchase with the specific intent of using it for birding with my D80 and an ancient Soligor 600mm f/8. Optical and mechanical performance are definitively first rate; providing more convenient viewing angle AND the advantage of the 2x magnification toggle that makes critical focus significantly easier. My 23 inch, 5 pound manual Soligor made the DR-6 an attractive accessory, but I use this viewer frequently when I shoot. It's excellent.
Coordination of the camera's diopter adjustment with the DR-6 customized adjustor (the eyepiece turns to perfect the sharpness of your view) requires some getting used to, and the top half swivels 90° left or right parallel to the sensor plane for portrait orientation, as/if you so desire.
The only shortcoming of this device is in its documentation which is perfectly supplemented by direct experience and the kindness of strangers in the internet. I couldn't be more pleased with this purchase.
