I love this camera. I notice the viewfinder has threads on it. Looks like it might take a diopter or other piece. Can anyone check thiers and comment.
Thanks

Your camera originally had a black metal ring that screwed onto the VF eyepiece (FYI, the same type VF eyepiece was later put onto the post-WWII versions of the Super Ikonta as well as the Contax IIa/IIIa, though most today are also missing the black ring). AFAIK, the ring didn't have much of a function except for protecting the eyepiece glass & reducing eyeglass scratches. I believe that Zeiss Ikon made diopters, etc. that fit the thread, but good luck finding an original (shouldn't be too hard to have 1 made, though).
