Having a cheap Seagull 2.5X right angled finder and an old V-Gear TalkCam Pro hanging around I decided to give it a go...
Best bit was the "lens ring" on the front of the Webcam was a snug fit into the aperture on the RA finder so it all just pushed together...
The Insulating tape is just to lock off the various adjustable focuses around the place...
Uses AMCap to view the "realtime" video from the webcam whilst focusing.
All I need no is clear skies to try it out...
