Eye relief, as in tired eyes? No, as I tested it on three separate occassions with different sales people but with the same conclusions. We figured that the magnifier is so simple a device it can't be Leica making a mistake but us not being able to figure it out.
Several distances: Thats a thought. 1 - 2 meters seems to be more OOF than 3 - 5 meters but I did not try further than that. I will try that next time round.
Did you tried looking with your eye almost "touching" the viewfinder? Touching and further out, and even looking out the side of my eyes. I got a pair of monovision that I will try next time round.
I think it was mounted correctly as far as I understood it. I just screwed in the magnifier in to the viewfinder window without removing anything. Fit was tight and flush with no gaps. Do I need to remove the viewfinder cup?
Thanks, appreciate the elimination of variables on my behalf.
