Cinema Oxide Scrope vs. Grid 5.0 vs. old RED evf

[greg huglin]

I tried out my old Canon 150-600 with a 2x on a RED with an old RED evf today in bright sunlight. Pretty easy to correct my eye with the built in diopter and focus it at 4k.
When we 'zoomed in' using 2k it got a lot more difficult to focus.
That RED evf is nice but pretty awful heavy.
So my question is this:
If I buy the Cinema Oxide Carbonite scope, how different will the resolution be compared to the old RED evf when looking at the touchscreen?
I'd prefer buying the Grid 5.0 because it looks easier to remove and less expensive and it seems easier to use by removing it rather than flipping up the hood.
But, the Grid has no diopter adjustment which I need. How about if I hotmelt glued a diopter that worked for my eye into the eyecup of the Grid? Perhaps too funky?
Any opinions?
Thanks

If past performance is any indication, you'll NEVER see the Cinema Oxide Scope.

Not only did I never receive mine, but I never received a refund either.

Beware.

Has cine oxide disappeared without a trace?

Hi Billy, the scope is still going strong. Its always a mystery to me why more people that own the scope don't post about it, but I guess they are just out there staying busy and shooting their projects. Its right here if you want to see more photos: http://cinemaoxide.com/carbonite-scope.php

@ Matt, I promptly sent you a refund and you confirmed that you received it, so I'm not sure why that post is there. I also sent you an email asking if there was some kind of confusion, but I have not heard back from you. I hope everything is ok on your end.
