I've got an Olympus Varimagni sitting here by my keyboard!

It fits my Pentax and has a 1.2 and a 2.5 magnifier lever switch on it and it swivels around too.

Never used it as I have the livescreen which articulates and moves where I wish

Gotta K-3iii now, had a K-S2, K50 and so suffering from a relapse and so buying digital camera kit.
Previous addiction has resulted in using Zeniths, Yashicamat, Chinons, Minoltas, Samsungs, Fujis, Cosina, Kodak, Lumix, Canon, Nikon and Pentax etc etc - have tried most makes in the past 50 years. Love cameras - love taking photos even more

It's the same as the A apparently apart from it's slightly narrower at the bottom which means it shows less info on a crop body. Never used it so I really have no idea.

I can have a look tomorrow.

Glad I saw that before I started looking, lot of trouble for something probably worth less than £20

I think you'll find they go for considerably more than £20 now, have a look on ebay, I was shocked. I got mine for £20 about 8 years ago

one of those things you will need "one day" so i can imagine losing or breaking it would be disaster when that day came. Good luck finding one
