Questions & Answers

DAWN E : Will this work on the Canon G3X?
Shopper : What is the difference between this and EVF-DC1?  Why choose one over the other?  Do both fit on EOS M3?LISA B : Our camera is the Canon M6. I purchased the EVF-DC-2 based on two criteria; OLED image and diopter adjustment. I wear glasses and having that adjustment, was a necessity. The portability of the M6 lends itself to point-and-shoot, with the large, LCD camera screen providing sufficient ‘viewfinder’ capability. The slide-on EVF-DC2 is used only when I adapt my EF lenses, to the camera, for critical focusing. The EVF-DC1 is about $100 more and at its’ price point, is half the cost of the camera! DC2, at lower cost, provides decent results, when needed, at a more reasonable cost.KRISTY F : One of the differences is the old one (DC1) is led and the new one (DC2) is oled, which is supposed to be better. The new one is stationary while the old one moves up and down, which would be a preference. The diopter on the DC2 is great and rated well, it allows me to take pictures without my glasses. It has three different settings to adjust to the user's needs. It locks on and is easy to remove, although I rarely remove it. I have not used the DC1, but I really like the DC2, and highly recommend it.
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?Terry W : Perfect fitGregory W : I have two M6's, one has it and one doesn't, you really need it on sunny days, plus it is very goo.ROBERT R : Because it is a n accessory to a camera that I own.KATHY M : It will make taking photos with my M6 camera easier when I'm outside.Homer Y : i prefer a eye-level view finder...more accurate then looking at arms length for older eyes...as with my canon 5D, 6D and M6 mark II.LESTER C : going to use this product with the canon eos m6 mirrorless camera body .JEREMIAH D : Limited options fir my Gx3, but a quality product.BARBARA S : cannot imagine myself not having a view finder...PATRICIA W : an EVF is an absolute must when shooting in bright sunlightJOSEPH L : This deal did not include viewfinder...should havePeter C : To better focus in hard sunlight. It had good reviews.

Awesome addition to the M6

The EVC-DC2 is an awesome addition to the Canon M6. It's probably not necessary, but it certainly makes using the camera more fun. Downsides are that it does add some bulk to the camera body and that the screen inside of it is more saturated in color than the camera's rear screen. Despite that, though, I'd still wholeheartedly recommend picking one up!

Must Have

I don?t know how I lived without this before! I use my M6 for both video and stills. Video without this is fine. stills without this is like a burger without ketchup.

Excellent viewfinder

This is a an excellent piece of equipment. It is clear and sharp, and, of course, using a viewfinder which is pressed to the face provides a much more stable environment than holding the camera a few feet away from your face. Thus you can get sharper images and use slower shutter speeds to achieve that.

Works Great

I am very pleased with the EVF-DC2. I am using it on my canon g3x, when I move it to my eye it switches on fairly quickly. There is an adjustment to focus in so that I don't need my glasses which works wonderfully for me. My concern with this function is that I already have it at the maximum, if my eyes get worse I will need the glasses again. The good news is it does work with glasses. You can also set it to stay on if you won't be using the screen display. It is easy to read the menus through the viewfinder. I also like that it locks on, you need to push a button to release the lock to remove it from the camera. The eye piece is very comfortable and easy to use. Overall I am very happy with it, the reason for the 4 stars is it sticks out quite a bit from the camera making it awkward to store the camera with it attached in my prefered smaller camera cases. While it does come with a nice little protective pouch, i prefer to leave it on the camera. I do not think that they could have made it any smaller, the real solution would be for canon to have built it into the camera. I highly recommend this viewfinder.

Perfect addition

I’ve been using this viewfinder for about a month now. Works great! This is a must have accessory for the M6. It really takes the pain out of trying to compose photos on a sunny day.

Was unable to use the viewfinder without the download.

Requires a download for compatibility with the camera even though it is sold as a canon app.
