hlockwood Posted July 28, 2007 Share #1 Posted July 28, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have an M7 with the 0.85 VF. I'd like to add the 1.25 manifier for accurate focusing when using a 90mm lens. Since I don't know the interrnal optics, I'm concerned about retaining a full view of the LED readout. Please advise.

Photoskeptic Posted July 28, 2007 Share #2 Posted July 28, 2007 Don't know about the M7, but I had one on my M6TTL .85 and it worked great! The LED readout is not affected as it is not in the frame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdai Posted July 29, 2007 Share #3 Posted July 29, 2007 Harry, I'm using exactly the same setup as you've mentioned ... and there's no problem reading the LED reading at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
J J Kapsberger Posted August 4, 2007 Share #4 Posted August 4, 2007 I too have a 1.25X magnifier, the one from HKSupplies (USD 55 on eBay). The eye relief isn't optimal for me. With glasses on--i.e., always--I can see the 90mm brightline indicators without a problem; however, I can see the LED readout only by adjusting my gaze into the viewfinder downward. For me, with glasses on, it's either I see the image area in the viewfinder or the LED read out. Perhaps the Leica magnifier gives better eye relief.
