Jurgen,
Thank you for sharing a photo of your kit! (Exactly the kit I would like to order!)
How are you finding the handling using the OVF? Are you finding the framing with the 45P (or a 21 or 30) fairly accurate when composing your photos? (I'm sure you still check the screen to ensure it is what you wanted in the frame.) Can you share some insight on your workflow while using the OVF with 907x 50c? Interested on your experience, a-la SWC with OVF, and the exposure setting you are using to do your capture. Is it awkward carrying the camera around (as a walk around camera) with the OVF (seem less secure than the OVF on the SWC); can it be used as a point and shoot camera for say street shooting or candid photos while traveling (sorry--a $8K point and shoot is a bit over kill, but there are times that would be kind of fun if one can do it and them go beck to "serious mode" with the kit when one needs to).
Thank you for your insight in advance! Enjoy your camera!!!!!!
Hello elm
I will try to answer your questions as good as I can .
I own a 905SWC with a CFV50 classic as well .
The OVF is beautifully made . A gem . It does not fit into a standard cold shoe adapter , so can also not be attached to the 905SWC . The framing lines are a bit weak . They are for the 21 mm , 30mm and 45mm lenses .
So composing your image by just using the OVF can be a bit tricky , depending on the existing light .
My intention , to get that OVF , was more to get a quick view using the OVF and not have life view active for a longer time , as life view warms up (not heat) the CFV II 50c .
The 907x kit is in no way as good in my hands as my 905SWC . So I would not use it as a walk around camera not even with the available handgrip . For a walk around camera , I would rather get the X1D II 50c .
I will use the CFV II 50c almost exclusively with my 905SWC , 503CW , 201F , and my ALPA TC and ALPA + as well as with my ARCA SWISS F-LINE METRIC 6x9 , and the kit as you see it in the image , from a tripod .
I hope this helps a bit .
