Product Description
Note: This adapter is still in test. First results look promising though (mount does not collide with 300/3, 40-140/2.8, plus eventual tripo collar, plus MC-14)
This is an adapter that provides a hotshoe – or rather cold shoe – on the left side in front of the camera to hold the red dot EE-1 from Olympus. This way you can view through the EVF and the red dot simultaniously, and the position close to the lens minimizes the parallax between the red dot and the lens. All controls of the EE-1 and the camera stay accessible.
On the camera side it needs to be attached to a BOEM1.2 modular base plate from Really Right Stuff and should be installed instead of the vertical base plate. Of course the vertical plate and the adapter can not be attached simultaniously.
Note that you have to insert the Olympus EE-1 into the adapter shoe before attaching the adapter to the BOEM base plate, as you can't slide the EE-1 in when the adapter is mounted. The upside of this is that the EE-1 can't get out of the adapter.
Due to the nature of the adapter fixature in the BOEM rail, you need to unmount the RRS BOEM rail to install or remove the adapter.
