Hi, I'm having a sort out of some of my equipment and have a very nice Silvesti optical shift view finder. This is designed for use with Silvestri cameras but can be used on large/medium format cameras if fitted with a mounting shoe.
It is really very well constucted and works perfectly but has minor paint loss. The finder is fitted with the correct Silvestri 6x9, 58mm xl mask, other format masks are available from Linhof studio, their blurb on the finder is a Shift Viewfinder
In certain occasions this type of viewfinder simplifies working and helps in making the composition process faster. A series of format frames are available for specific lenses. The viewfinder has an adjustment option to move the format frame to simulate the 15-0-15mm shift movement. Currently on sale at Linhof/Silvestri at an amazing 699.00 pounds +vat and the masks are and extra 49.00 + vat. would like 200.00 pounds or best offer.
I also have a as new boxed Silvesti 45 degree tilting 6X lupe if anyone is interested.
Thanks
Pete
