Does anyone know of cheaper and working alternative to Nikon's overpriced DR-5 right angle viewfinder ?
I did a quick search on Amazon but it came up with ones for rectangular eyepieces.

Thanks

The older DR-4 has a 22mm threaded eyepiece connection. There are quite a few for sale on ebay for $50 or so.

Check out the used equipment sites like KEH https://www.keh.com/ , and Roberts Camera used dept https://usedphotopro.com/ . The used angle finders are often priced about 50% of new and often in excellent to like new condition.
