" It's the lack of an integrated VF that spoils it for me. "

Me also but there is a solution.

I know for a lot of people a lack of an EVF is a deal breaker and that is fine.

As you can see from my gallery, it has never been a drawback for me.

Have you tried the Clearviewer Louis?

I see you use that optical viewer for your wide angle. Don't you miss the info on the screen which the Clearviewer would provide and avoid the need for the hotshoe viewer?

I have a confession to make about the need to see info on the rear panel when photographing. I have U1 set to shutter 1/160 and aperture f5.6 and I rarely shoot at anything else, or if I know I have a lot of lack of light I may up/downtick aperture or shutter via the control wheels. I may adjust EV to taste with the rear rotating thingy. I also use the grid lines permanently on the display so even if it is hard to see detail I can frame the outline of what I am shooting.

I like the look of the Clearviewer but to be honest I have two of the hot shoe external viewfinders and I rarely use them, so I'd probably end up leaving a Clearviewer in the drawer.

Thanks for the tip.

Refreshing air at last! After 6 days of 90+ heat and high humidity a cold front blasted through last night and cleared it all out.

Old mill in Upper Treman State park at the headwaters of Enfield Creek.

Fishkill Creek behind the mill was the source of power to turn the grindstones. Low flow season now would not provide any power to grind grain.

Sunrise on the coast at Saint John, New Brunswick.

Junction of Saint John River with the Bay of Fundy. Powerful tidal current makes the river run upstream periodically generating class 5 rapids.

Haven't looked through this thread for some time. Great stuff from this little magic camera.

Today, I visited the local fire station on an open-day. Decided to save my back and took only the Ricoh GRIII and the WA adapter. Got some nice shots, I think.
