kenny_chiu8 Posted July 25, 2000 Share Posted July 25, 2000 Anybody uses the Leica-M eye piece yet? I am wearing eye glasses.Can the correction (-) eye peice lens help me better to focus?I have no difficulty to focus except using the 90mm lens. Thanks.

ralph_shook Posted July 25, 2000 Share Posted July 25, 2000 Kenny: <p> I also wear eyeglasses, although of positive diopter correction. Using the Leica M6 TTL with lenses from 24mm through 90mm, focus is effortless using a Leica +2 diopter lens attached to the cameras eyepiece. When using the Leica, I focus without my eyeglasses, hanging them around my neck on a cord. By the way, the Leica M Grip is a useful accessory, especially when using heavy lenses or in attachment to a tripod. Good luck. <p> Ralph Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_collier Posted July 25, 2000 Share Posted July 25, 2000 The eyepiece correction lens loves to work loose and fall out when you are not looking. So when you screw it in use a tiny drop of VERY MILD thread locking compound or paint to prevent it from loosening. You still should be able to remove it if you need to.

andrew_schank Posted July 26, 2000 Share Posted July 26, 2000 I use a slight minus on my M3. It made the split image razor sharp for me (without my glasses that I use mostly for driving) and much easier to use the 90 and 135 especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
