Does anyone know a source of a good 50mm finder - straight through, correct image?

Anacortes carries a straight through correct image finderscope, but it is made for big binos. Still, perhaps it could also be adapted for use on your scope.

Dmitri,

The only one I know of is Vixen I believe. As I recall,
the 10X50 can be configured either way.

They've got a 10X50 and a 7X50 Don't know if Anacortes has it.

Good Luck,

Here is a link to a 7x50 erect image finder: http://www.william-optics.com/wowebs/prod_acc/finder750/features0.htm

I have made finders by tearing apart a pair of Orion "Outsider" 10x50 binoculars. They work great!
