Thumbs up for Megaperls 1.3x magnifier

[nemjo]

It's again me.
do your eyepieces look like this?
I still can't unscrew it.

Yes.
Viewed from the back of the camera it unscrews in an anti clockwise direction. You may have to grip it with something like rubber sheeting to get it undone. If I remember mine was quite tight and unscrewed starting with a "click" as the threads freed.

I think both surfaces are anodised which can bind. I put a just a trace of vaseline on the threads of the magnifier to prevent that from happening.

Thanks a lot.
I found it be a great abuse to the camera, definitely didn't dare it without your encouraging...
Nnnaa but the result!
Much better than waited.

Thanks again to you all,
