    5.0 out of 5 stars nice accessory

    This is a welcome accessory for most photographers. It eliminates using the LCD screen, saves battery life, and in general makes things much faster. Just point and shoot. If I ever get the close up lens attachment I will need to use the screen, but not until.

    I really like this finder, it is nice and bright. I do wish it would fit tighter in the hot shoe. Its a little expensive to have a plastic body, but the glass is of a high quality and that is more important than the body material. It is a permanent fixture on my camera.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Sigma DP1X external viewfinder
    Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2013
    Style: DP1Verified Purchase
    I paid $115 used for this on Amazon - hard to find used, and new they're about $150. I got as an aide to framing shots in low-level light. It works, but knowing now how large it is, I wouldn't purchase it again. I think it's too small - I'd look for other 28mm external viewfinders that would fit the camera hot-shoe (probably just about any would do). I would prefer it to be at least twice as big as it is, and would even consider the very popular standard Voightlander 28mm finders with high-quality glass at $200-$250.

    What good is an external viewfinder if you cannot focus with it? Piece of junk. I am sending it back. What a joke

    5.0 out of 5 stars Get the External Viewfinder for your DP-1
    Reviewed in the United States on March 29, 2008
    Style: DP1
    Forget about the review that thinks this is overpriced, I think it is a valuable addition to the DP-1 and if you've ever bought pro quality accessories for a Nikon, Leica, etc., this is a bargain.

    The quality is very good, it is compact, fits perfectly on the camera -- in short it looks like it belongs there. If you are serious about street or action shooting, you need this accessory.

    4.0 out of 5 stars essential
    Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2008
    Style: DP1
    Too often I find viewfinders that are unsympathetic to spectacle wearers, not being able to see the full view/field. Having bought without trying it was a relief to find that yes it is useable with specs, and the whole frame is visible. It would be a little easier to use if it wasn't so tiny though, and the topof the optional; lens hood intrudes into the bottom of the frame/view. 4 stars from me, as I feel if it was larger, and higher off the top plate it would be even better. Still essntial, though the voightlander 28mm viewfinder may just be that extra star better.

    Some people don't understand the purpose of an external OVF. Once you use one, you'll know why you want one.

    5.0 out of 5 stars 理由はただ一つ
    Reviewed in Japan on August 1, 2017
    Style: DP1Verified Purchase
    DP1でフードを装着した状態でファインダーを覗くと、ただでさえ実用性の低いビューファインダーがさらに実用性が低くなる。
    しかし、DP1はDPシリーズ初代だけあってフードが無い状態では写りが格段に悪くなるため、フードは必須なのだ。

    ビューファインダーを覗くたびに写り込むフードをどう思うかはユーザー次第だが、それでも私はこのビューファインダーがDP1になくてはならないアクセサリーだと思っている。

    なぜならば、カッコいいからである。それ以外の理由は必要ない。
