Not a Good Design

No diopter adjustment and poor attachment to base of camera the 1/4 20 screw is to short to attach to the female threads on the bottom of the battery grip without taking off the rubber strips on the base plate. I ended up taking it off and holding it up the the screen when I use it which is not very accurate.
