Useful but fits poorly
I use this very often as it helps me gain additional perspectives without putting my body into crouches. I would love to just leave it on my camera all the time but even after a week of receiving it, it fits poorly onto my Rebel XT. The first time it fell off, I was fortunate to be walking on grass. I probably should use a pair of pliers to bend parts of the metal bracket for a tighter fit but I am a bit reluctant because this was a very expensive item! It makes me wonder how the fit of the less expensive Hoodman version is.
Overall, I am happy with what it is intended to do but am disappointed with the fit of the bracket onto my camera.
Awesome
Saves your back and neck. I've captures some great shot with this Angle finder C. It's a must for you Canon DSLR.

Buy This at Amazon, the price is right!
After working in the studio without it, I knew that it was a necessary item for my EOS Canon. Camera accessory vendors were asking a lot more than Amazon, so I ordered it before Amazon changed their mind and I've enjoyed using this original accessory from Canon ever since; Thanks, Amazon!
Crisp, clear angled viewfinder.
The Canon Angle Finder C was a life (or more accurately a back) saver for me. I've used it for astrophotography so far and whereas before where I would have to lie on the ground and twist into a human pretzel to see through the viewfinder I can now get a clear view in relative comfort and greater dignity.
The viewfinder has two magnification settings, the greater magnification is helpful for focusing. The image through the angle finder is crystal clear. The angle finder also pivots so you can move it to a more comfortable position (it is still 45 degrees but it moves perpendicular to the lens).
The build quality is top notch. It comes with a storage pouch.
I use it with an EOS 40D.
Canon angle Finder C
A must have product. The optics on this instrument are first rate. Other similar products are 3rd rate. This and a pair of kneepads are indespensible for the avid landscape and macro photographer.
The down side, is that Canon doesn't even include a warranty sheet for the product. My first one disassembled itself at Badwater. I cobbled it back together but a couple of tiny ball bearings got lost. So, I bought a new one.
