To be brutally honest poor at best. After an hour shoot the whole mechanism around the rosette was loose and very unstable. After retighten everything the same issue arose I?m at a loss of what to say very disappointed and it is not a one off there several guys in the crew with the same grip and the exact same issues.

It is very useful for daylight and also for checking detail. But the ability to articulate the EVF to different positions is lost. It is possible to tilt the Z-finder on its 12mm rod axis, however. Seems overpriced compared to similar view finders I've had for smaller cameras.

Totally useless assembly instructions & the image seemed way too big & close - but once I put both the extender frames in - the image was much better suited to me.

I am impressed by the build quality of this view finder. The instructions for mounting did not help much, but once I messed with it I got it mounted. Ordering the handle mount also. Great product.

A little heavier than the Sony VIEWfinder (fx-9) but less bulky and more robust!

So far, the Z-Finder for the Sony FX6 has been a good purchase. It?s well made and allows for accurate viewing in bright sunlight. The diopter adjustment is a little vague, and the weight is substantial, but not a big concern. I find the image a bit too big, and a little disorienting if you look around the frame too much. It would be nice if the optics could provide a smaller image.

Really needs an assembly guide. Figured it out after a while. Makes the FX6 viewfinder workable in an outdoor situation. Biggest problem is the diopter adjustment really makes little difference with or without spacers installed. It's sharp for me, but I suspect others may find it inadequate.

Mounted on the right rear of the handle. Now the Z Finder is easier to adjust to meet my eye for shoulder mount. The handle mount tightens in the direction tilt which keeps it from coming loose.

Two of the red tension levers bump into each other as I attempt to tilt the Z Finder down. Makes it difficult to pull the Z Finder back toward my eye on my shoulder rig.

The Zacuto Sony FX6 Z-Finder is specifically designed to suit the shape and size of the monitor included with the Sony FX6. It is the same optical viewfinder eyepiece but the mount is different for the FX6. The FX6 Z-Finder comes with a flip up frame designed to slide onto the FX6 LCD and lock securely in place. The Zacuto Z-Finder will pop on and off the frame for quick shooting. The red lever at the bottom of the frame allows you to quickly flip the Z-Finder up without removing it from the frame. If a producer/client/director etc. wants to see into the viewfinder, you can flip it open instead of having to adjust so they can get their eye to the loupe.
This Z-finder will magnify the LCD screen by 2.5x and has a diopter for specific focus tuning. It cuts out any extraneous light and offers an initial point of stability by pressing your eye against our comfy, large eyecup. The FX6 Z-finder comes with a 40mm diameter Zacuto optical designed lens, anti-fog coated protective covers, and the mounting system designed specifically for the FS5 LCD. The diopter allows you to dial in the focus to match your eye. If you need extra focal points you can use the included Z-Finder Extender Frames. These are semi-permanent stackable frames that attach to the body of the Z-Finder and extend the Z-Finder glass further away from the LCD screen for people who are farsighted. The diopter range with the included lens and extender frames is -4.0 to 0.0.
If you need more adjustment than the Extender Frames provide, you can add drop in diopters for further diopter adjustment. The interchangeable anti-fog glass diopters, -1, +1, +2, +3 and +4, correct the focus to your vision for perfect clarity. An aluminum sun mask is built into the Z-Finder to protect your LCD screen from sunlight. Drop in diopters installed underneath this aluminum sun mask.
The included FX6 Mounting Bracket mounts the Z-Finder using the Sony 15mm rod mount. This includes a locking lever which screws into the flip frame to hold the LCD securely in place. The Mounting Bracket attaches to either the Sony adapter or any 15mm rod. This setup is NOT ideal for shoulder mounted; it will not get the eyepiece where you need it.
