I agree with John. I use a straight through correct image finder and have found that they can be used quite comfortably, even at the zenith if you can get your whole body well below the finder. I have positioned it on the OTA so that high altitude viewing can be done comfortably sitting down. The added bonus of sitting is that you can comfortably spend time at the finder scope searching out difficult targets. I use an adjustable Astro chair which also means I can be leaning back when viewing avoiding any neck strain. A stool is worth trying, but something with a back that you can lean on will be more comfortable.
Cheers
Steve
