## Questions & Answers

**Q: How well does it work with glasses?  What is the eyepoint spec?**
A: It Works perfectly. I am not sure about exect eyepoint spec but it is within 1 to 2 cm range I guess. (I have to look at the camera and measure it which is not with me right now, I am at the business). Later I will give you better information. But overall, it is an essential part for the camera which is expensive and this viewfinder makes it more expensive. :)

**Q: Will it work on a  Canon G3x**
A: I have checked up and according to canon it is compatible with the G3X and the G1X Mk2. I have the G1X MK2 but was thinking of changing to the G3X. Is it a good camera and would you recommend it?Denis

**Q: Does it work on the EOS-M?**
A: The EOS-M doesn't have the contacts in the hot shoe to support the use of the EVF-DC1 - or any other external viewfinder.

**Q: Will this work on the powershot G12?**
A: No. the G12 has its own view finder.The Canon EVF-Dc1 fits the G3X. it may fit others in the G series too.

Item was exactly as advertised

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Functions perfectly - Bruce Lovelace "CanonCameraGeek.com"

This is a review of the EVF-DC1 viewfinder for the Canon G1X Mark II.I had been hoping Canon would improve on the original Canon G1X, their first attempt at a compact, high-end point and shoot with a big sensor. The original G1X received a lot of criticism for its tiny optical viewfinder, poor focusing performance, limited zoom range, and lack of close-up focusing.I was very excited to first learn of the G1X Mark II and its improvements over the original G1X. I am "old school" and really don't like composing photos by using an LCD screen. I prefer using a viewfinder. I must admit I was still reluctant to spring for the extra $250 for the EVF, after already committing $750 for the G1X Mark II camera. Boy, am I glad I did.What I Like:1.You can see everything you normally would on the LCD screen. That includes during A) shooting, B) plowing through the menu and C) playback.2. It come on automatically as soon as you put your eye close to it and switches back to LCD screen view as soon as you pull your eye away from it.3. It tilts up which is great for low angle.4. It's very responsive and is practically "real-time" viewing of your subject.What I don't like:1. It's price2. It adds a little to the overall size dimensions on top of the camera.I just gave it a two-week workout on a photo excursion to Alaska. The combination of the size of the camera, the image quality and the ease of use of the EVF made it fun again and enjoy travel and take great photo at the same time.For me personally, shooting video is painful without a viewfinder. Video is so easy to shoot with the EVF attached to the hot shoe of the camera.Why the 5-stars instead of 4-stars, despite the negatives I listed above? The positives: its brightness and superior viewing of the scene and critical reviewing of the images is so useful and enjoyable that they outweigh the negatives enough for me to give it a 5-star rating.I review a lot of Canon equipment and accessories and I don't blindly support everything Canon does. If you can handle the price tag, I can't imagine anyone not liking this attachment.Bruce LovelaceCanonCameraGeek.com

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pricey, but nice.
*by M***R on December 31, 2015*

If you're used to using a viewfinder, you'll feel like considering this. Outside when it's bright and the rear display is hard to use, this comes in handy. I'm not sure where the sensor is located, but when you bring the camera to your eye the display on the back of the camera goes black and the display in the viewfinder automatically lights up. There are options in the camera setting and on the side of the unit to have you turn it on and off manually as well. It has a diopter so if you wear glasses you can adjust the view for clarity. It rotates up nicely so you can be looking down "into" the viewfinder. This would be very helpful if you're shooting very low on the ground. Since it sits on the hot-shoe, I'm sure it draws its life from the camera's battery, depleting the already somewhat strained battery life of the Canon G3X. If you have a camera case, consider getting a larger camera bag so this also fits or taking it off when you're not using the camera. Finally, this is a very pricey item and probably out of the price range for a casual user or anyone who doesn't really feel they will use it often. It would be 5 stars if the price was lower. Sometimes it's bundled with the camera for a substantial savings. Overall, I'm glad I purchased it.
