Personally I use Magnifier FB link for critical manual focussing. You can pick them up on eBay for a lot less.

It flips out of the way over the hotshoe when not in use.
As does the magnifier 'M' I got mine for £10 on Ebay. The Pentax refconverters do show a vertically and horizontally correct image, not inverted.

You can pick up a 'M' series viewfinder magnifier for not much money, they work well, metal bodied not plastic like the latest incarnation. The magnifier 'M' will fit any Pentax DSLR AFAIK. The refconverters (right angle finders) fetch far more money and are harder to come by but also excellent. Have you considered a magnifying eyepiece?

Hi Ken, it's full height, reaches my eye level and I'm 6'-1" provisionally sold to Karthik. I just need to get some postege costs. Thanks for your interest.

Kind regards,

John
