Has anyone had any experience shooting verticals with the p67 in a studio? If so, with which finder?

Thanking you in advance Hal

Hi Hal, I've used it in studio settings. When shooting people I have found that the prism finders (I use the non-metered but either will do) are the only feasable ones for verticle shots. I usually shoot hand held with strobes. It feels like a big 35mm. With the waste level finder its simply too difficult to work with a person while looking sideways into an upside down image. Its very difficult to line things up and keep it straight and hard to stay in contact with the subject. For still life work I think the waist level finder on a tripod is best. It's still a little difficult shooting vertically, but you get 100% of the image and I seem to compose better on the ground glass than though a prism.
