I'm running out of excuses not to buy one :-) Steve - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of Paul Chefurka Sent: 27 August 2001 19:09 To: LUG (E-mail) Subject: [Leica] A new VF magnifier? Here's an interesting gizmo for M telephoto users. Erwin Puts, in his latest email newsletter, indicates that Leica has produced a 1.25x add-on viewfinder magnifier for the M6, that he says works like a charm for to increase the focus accuracy and subject visibility with 75, 90 and 135 lenses. It would make a .58 into a .72, the .72 finder becomes the equivalent of the M3 (0.9x), and the .85 finder stretches to 1.06x! He gave no indication of when it will be available, but it's probably worth a look for long-lens users. My dealer has a call in to Lisle-Kelco to see about availability. Does anyone have any more info on this? Paul
