A Brightscreen Magnifier (along with a Brightscreen screen) came with  
my used R8/DMR.
I also was not impressed with either the magnifier or the screen and  
returned to R8/DMR stock components.
I took from this, again, that Leica seems to make (and/or supply)  
fine components for their gear and don't often require 3rd party  
upgrades.

Fond regards,
George
