Abstract
A finder optical system includes an objective system having a positive refracting power, a reflecting member having a field frame of variable shape, for erecting an image, and an eyepiece system having a positive refracting power. At least one positive lens unit of the eyepiece system is moved along the optical axis, and at least one positive tens unit is inserted in the optical path of the eyepiece system. The magnification of the finder optical system can thus be increased.
