Any good links?
Trying to find info on this may serve as a perfect illustration of
what's wrong with the common web search engines. I mean, if you enter
"hot shoe mount waist level finder" in the search field, you get all
pages that mentions "hot shoe mount" as well as "waist level finder",
i.e. most pages about cameras (like the LX) that (potentially) have a
waist-level finder and a hot-shoe mount. And a few that mentiones one
camera with a hot-shoe and a different one with a waist-level finder...
Not very useful...

The Zigview LCD that has been talked about in this thread might work,
with a custom adapter.

yet to
actually see such a finder.

I've never seen a waist level finder for a rangefinder, and I've been
looking for a couple of years.

In the rangefinder world there are lots of flash shoe mountable
viewfinders around, to accomodate lenses of focal lengths not
supported
by the internal view/rangefinder, so I would assume this also
includes
a
waist-level type, but I didn't see it yet. Strange?
