People at my local camera club have been asking me about my EE-1 Dot Sight and asking if anybody, apart from Olympus (or OMDS) makes them. It's easier with both eyes open which, I suspect, is how you'll want to shoot anyway, but it's doable even with one closed. I trained my arms (muscle memory) to bring the camera up to me eye level so that I could open my eye and see the reticle centered in the Dot sight's screen.

With two setting buttons, I made sure that the center of my viewfinder exactly aligned with the position of the red dot. Olympus introduced the Dot Sight first in the form of the SP-100, a superzoom bridge camera that has it built-in. It becomes more useful in situations where you really have a hard time just finding and tracking a subject.While a difference of a few mm is not really important, parallax is one thing that the sight cannot correct. Then there's this rather large thing, you have to dial in, and even then, it is likely slightly off. Be careful to tighten the fastening mechanism and not bang the dot sight and everything will be fine. It is important that you remain in the same position while performing the whole operation so that your view of the LCD screen and Red Dot Sight doesn’t change much.

Il mirino si apre a scatto sbloccando un piccolo pulsante, il sistema è a molla con delle leve che lo tengono aperto una volta sollevato.The EE-1 externally mounted dot sight is perfect for super-telehoto photography - particularly useful with birds and wildlife. The dot-sight should instead be kept at roughly 5 to 15 cm away from the eye, where the casing around the sight is unobtrusive (this is when you appreciate the fact that the EE-1 is so lightly built).
