At last, from China, a binocular viewer for the Linhof Technika as a price that mortals can afford. Mine arrived in Florida in under two weeks after placing the order. Grossly overpacked!
It seems to be well made, fits the Kardan-Color S back perfectly and clips on like it should. My only complaint is that it's fairly heavy, and tends to pull the GG back out a little in the portait orientation if I'm not careful. Switching from landscape to portrait is very cleverly done -- no German over-engineering, at all!
Along with Shelby Lee Adams, I've been using Linhof's Monocular attachment for years. (Looking forward to trying it on my Technika when it gets it's new Chinese bellows next month.)
(I'll try to post some pictures of it in use tomorrow.)
