It works great for what it does. However, aside from
the protruding eyepiece that might pose a safety
hazard while jamming it against your eyeball, I find
it very difficult for steady handholding the camera.
The fact that you cannot push your camera against your
face without jamming it against your eyeball,
stablizing handholding shots are like balancing on a
pogo stick. For those that wear glasses should not
pose any of these problems. Ironically, I need glasses
but all these years I'm used to using a diopter for my
visual correction and hate to wear glasses just for
the 1.25 mag.
