My loupe is a 50mm f/1.4 Olympus Zuiko. Much better than my crummy plastic 8x Agfa Loupe. On the Olympus list, several people have mentioned "loupe service" as something to do with the extra 50mm lenses one aquires while hunting down the perfect camera body. And to stay on topic: There's something ironic about using an Olympus lens to view Leica contact sheets, negatives and slides. - --Peter Klein, Seattle, WA
