mediumformula Posted February 14, 2022 Share #1  Posted February 14, 2022 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi.  I have a MP with a .72 viewfinder.  I would prefer that it had a .85 viewfinder.  Is it possible to have the viewfinder replaced?  Who would do such a procedure?  Anyone have experience with this?  Thank you.  I have already tried a x1.25 magnifier on my MP.  That does help but I don't like the magnifier sticking out of the camera, plus the rubber o-ring on the magnifier keeps popping off if you brush the viewfinder up against something. I exclusively shoot with a 50mm lens.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

madNbad Posted February 15, 2022 Share #2  Posted February 15, 2022 Here is a link to the Leica repair forms. Let them know what you want and they will send you a quote for the cost: https://leica-camera.com/en-US/service-support/repair-maintenance That will be your starting point and the most expensive. You can also check with Don Goldberg, DAG Camera for his cost. Good luck with the project, 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kriehuber Posted February 15, 2022 Share #3 Â Posted February 15, 2022 Yes its possible. Leica Customer Care in Wetzlar will do it. I had a 0.58 finder installed multiple times, one just late last year. I just contacted them, send them my camera and they took care of it. But I don't know how the procedure is from outside Germany, personally I would always contact Customer Care in Germany directly. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
