Has anyone used the Linhof reflex right angle finder for 4X5 ? If so, how well does it work ? Also, will the new ones fit a Tech IV ?

Yes, the reflex finder fits the Tech IV.

i have used mine on a tech iv. although expensive like all linhof products it is worth it. very compact and easy horiz/vert switching. you'll need a fresnel or superscreen.

I have a reflex finder for my Linhof Technika V. It's agreat idea but it doesn't work well in practice. The image is dim and seems far away making it difficult to focus. I find it much better to compose and focus directly on the ground glass.
