For more detail and comparison see previous upload. This one is on Adox Varioprint paper, only selenium toning 1:25. I like both this one and the previous toned version, they are so different in real life.

Think it's usually hard to see what happens to the print when selenium toning, but this time I decided to let it soak for 10 min in a strong 1:5 bath. Obvious reddish hue!

The last of the mini-series from this location (passageway near Kings Cross Station, London), I quite enjoyed post-processing these alternative versions this week.

Here is the current status of my little Canon 7 project:

In the picture you can see the clamp holder with cold shoe (in silver PLA+) attached exposure meter. The viewfinder hood and the selenium cell protection (black) are attached to the clamp holder

The Canon 7 (here with Leitz Elmarit 2.8/90mm ltm) is a great camera with an excellent viewfinder. It is very quiet, easy to use and of excellent quality. In my opinion, its biggest shortcomings are the lack of a cold shoe. And the fact that the selenium light meter stops working properly in many cases. That's how I came up with my little Canon 7 project. A few other ideas have been added.
I don't know of any rangefinder camera manufacturer that offers a sunshade for the viewfinder window, neither Leica, Fujifilm, Canon nor anyone else. Yet such a sunshade for the viewfinder makes absolute sense. The viewfinder image becomes less contrasty, especially in dark areas and with reflections from the sun. In case of strong light incidence from the side, such a protection is almost necessary. On the Canon 7, such protection is also useful for the small focus window. The small window allows sunlight from the side to enter the viewfinder directly.
Selenium photo elements age due to light. Also, most meters built into cameras are not (anymore) very accurate. Here, the selenium photocell is protected from light. And it is possible to plug an external, more accurate, light meter onto the hot shoe.
The clip-on light shield protects both the viewfinder and the plastic in front of the selenium photocell from slight mechanical damage.
The whole thing consists of 2 parts that I printed with PLA-plus, plain PLA seems a bit too brittle to me. The two parts work fine, but can still be modified or extended.
I am grateful for comments with opinions, ideas or criticism.

Die Canon 7 (hier mit Leitz Elmarit 2,8/90mm ltm) ist eine tolle Kamera mit einem hervorragenden Sucher. Sie ist sehr leise, einfach zu bedienen und von ausgezeichneter Qualität. Ihr größtes Manko ist meiner Meinung nach das Fehlen eines Kaltschuhs. Und die Tatsache, dass der Selen-Belichtungsmesser in vielen Fällen nicht mehr richtig funktioniert. So entstand mein kleines Canon 7-Projekt. Es wurden noch einige weitere Ideen hinzugefügt.
Ich kenne keinen Hersteller von Messsucherkameras, der einen Sonnenschutz für das Sucherfenster anbietet, weder Leica, Fujifilm, Canon noch sonst jemand. Dennoch macht so ein Sonnenschutz für den Sucher absolut Sinn. Vor allem in dunklen Bereichen und bei Reflexionen der Sonne wird das Sucherbild weniger kontrastreich. Bei starkem seitlichen Lichteinfall ist ein solcher Schutz nahezu notwendig. Bei der Canon 7 ist ein solcher Schutz auch für das kleine Fokusfenster sinnvoll.
Selen-Fotoelemente altern durch Licht. Außerdem sind die meisten in Kameras eingebauten Messgeräte nicht (mehr) sehr genau. Hier ist die Selen-Fotozelle vor Licht geschützt. Und es ist möglich, einen externen, genaueren Lichtmesser an den Blitzschuh anzuschließen.
Der aufsteckbare Lichtschutz schützt sowohl den Sucher als auch den Kunststoff vor der Selen-Fotozelle vor leichten mechanischen Beschädigungen.
Das Ganze besteht aus 2 Teilen, die ich mit PLA-plus gedruckt habe, schlichtes PLA erscheint mir etwas zu spröde. Die beiden Teile funktionieren gut, können aber noch geändert oder erweitert werden.
Für Kommentare mit Meinungen, Ideen oder Kritik bin ich dankbar.

Another photo taken on a pre-Christmas foggy day - this time once the 'sun' was definitely down.
Post-processed with Lightroom - I used a selenium split-toning preset and then fiddled with the highlights/shadows split. This looks much cooler than the full-colour pic.
