A good angle finder to buyStrengths: 1. Gives you different aspects 2. Fits all canon cameras with two adapters it comes with. 3. mag. max from 1.25 to 2.5X. Weakness: 1. Too tight on the adapter 2. Lower price will be perfect This angle finder may seem expensive (comparing to 3rd party ones), however, once you get a hold of it, you will appreciate its quality build and its smooth rotations. The angle finder is essential when taking outdoor low angle shots. Sometime it is used in indoor as well when you have those tide spots where you can't possible bend over and see. For example, against the wall. 100% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Very expensive to own, but worth every pennyStrengths: 1. High quality build 2. Nice fit to all cameras Weakness: 1. Price too high 2. It would be ideal if it can "extend" out for a inch or so. I have been shopping for an anglefinder for a long time. Of course, I got many suggestions from people to "just go for the cheaper ones because you won't use it as much". Oh, that's just wrong. 83% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Canon Angle Finder CStrengths: viewfinder magnification Weakness: only 2.5 magnification I bought it for astrography thinking it would be helpful in focusing in the dark. You know it will be very difficult to tell if it is focused when you shoot a dim object at infinity. I taped the dioptric adjustment but I found it's useless. Because whenever I switch between 1.25 and 2.5 magnification, I should readjust the dioptric to make sure it was in focus. It became extremely awkward to switch among focus ring, dioptric, and 1.25 or 2.5 magnification in the dark. 32% of readers found this review helpful. Did you find it helpful or unhelpful? Top

Canon Angle Finder C
Strengths: Nicely built, versatile, and works on my Nikon D70
Weakness: Pricey and eyepiece adapter a little loose
The Canon Angle Finder C is a well-built angle finder with good magnification. When I noticed that I am getting old and unable to focus those macro-shoots as usual, I know that I have to get a finder with some magnification. I decided on this Canon finder instead of the Nikon because of its versatility and magnification ranges. Maybe this is not that important to others but I like the ideal of be able to use it on Canon and Nikon cameras. The extra 0.5X of magnification may not seem much, but it is for my old eyes. There is nothing hard about using this device, and when attached to my camera, the view is clear and sharp. I also noticed that the adapter was a little loose when attached to my camera, but it is not too bad. Overall, this Canon Angle Finder C is a good quality finder, and will be an important part of my macro photography.
