Just my two cents - I own a 90 and two 45 prisms, the PM-5 and PM-45 by far I use the PM-45 the most, I like the magnification and the way the screen looks through it. I like the relief. I find it suitable for most of the subjects I shoot, I like how easy it is to change backs and... being a wearer of glasses - sometimes I shoot with glasses sometimes without, studio shooting with/outdoor shooting without and I hate the on off on off on off glasses thing I will not do it. - Having the diopter adjustment is really nice.

That's probably my PM45 for sale on RFF. Still available. I thought I'd try using a prism to help my focus hit rate and to make it easier to compose, since the image is flipped "the right way." I found it did both of those, but working with the WLF suits me better, so it's for sale.

Just to catch everyone up following this thread I exchanged my PM90 for an NC-2 from KEH. I decided I'd like the smallest simplest prism. I hope I don't miss the flash shoe though. We'll see. I'll let you all know what I think when it arrives!

What do you mean, you exchanged it. You didn't trade it 1 for 1 did you?
