Use of 1.25 viewfinder magnifier on M6 TTL .58?greenspun.com : LUSENET : Leica Photography : One Thread |
Does anyone have any experience using the 1.25 viewfinder magnifier with the M6 TTL .58 viewfinder?

Yes -- It fits just fine and it turns your .58 into a .72 without 135 framelines.

It does what Leica say it does, but if you wear specs you may not be able to see the 28mm frameline with it on.

I use the .58 M-6s all the time. I do because of glasses. The magnifier is best with the Noctilux,the75, and the 90. I don't use it for the wider lenses. I've had the magnifier for three months or more and had absolutely no problems with ir.

The 90mm, 75mm and in my opinion even the 50mm framelines are still ridiculously small with the magnifier in place on a .58x body.
