I'm about ready to take my much-loved EM-1 underwater with me, and I'm impressed with Nauticam's setup. But I can't determine whether I should get the viewfinder, and if so, whether the 45 degree or the 180 degree. I can't find any advice on this, either. What experience have you all with different kinds of viewfinders?
By way of background, I've been shooting an XZ-1 in Olympus's own PT-054 housing. I have a prescription mask, bifocal, and never have been able to get a sharp view using the rear LCD - it's too dim, even at the brightest setting, and really seems to sit right at the midway point, where it's too close for my distance lens and too far for my reading lens. Especially for macro, I'd love a sharper view, and to be able to see the shots I'm composing. All guidance welcome!
