Angenieux orientable VF, remounting from ACL to NPR

[Gregg MacPherson]

Hey,

Any advice appreciated on this.

 

The Angenieux fully orientable viewfinder for the ACL. When mounting this on the NPR, using the ACL mounting bracket.

 

- Is the screw hole spacing for the mounting bracket the same for ACL and NPR? The ACL measured about 31.5mm center to center.

 

- What is the hole size in the camera body of the NPR to accommodate the VF. The ACL (S16) that I measured had a 15.7mm hole and the VF has 14.95mm diameter baffle that fits this hole.

 

- If using the ACL mounting bracket on the NPR will the VF diopter be roughly centered (diopter setting 0 for good eyes)? Is a spacer required, or any tweaking to the VF optics to achieve diopter=0 on the eyepiece?

 

Thanks for any help.

Cheers,

Gregg.
