Leica 1.25x Viewfinder Magnifier for a RD1

[cam]

New life for an old thread, I guess.
Does anybody know if the MS-MAG x1.3N sold by megaperls can fit the Zeiss ZI rangefinder camera? Do all rangefinder cameras have an appropriately sized eyepiece to use with this eyepiece magnifier (i.e. Voigtlander Bessas, classic Nikon or Contax)?

your best bet would be to email or PM Dirk (Megaperls) and ask him. he's very knowledgeable and helpful and will get back to you within a day. terrific customer service!

Is it still a requirement that this magnifier be ordered for a Nikon body because of the Leica patent on the M version?

I also had a great experience w/Megaperls & the magnifier. Shipping took longer than 3 days (was over a weekend), but no big deal.

Speaking of which, does anyone sell a replacement eyepiece ring for the R-D1/Bessa's?

I got mine from the Head Bartender -- see viewfinder and viewfinder accessories. I lost mine on a long walk, found it, and found that attention to screwing it on tight has kept the problem from recurring.
