Dioptre magnifier for Rolleiflex SL66SE

[Lex Harris]

Does anyone know where I can get a corrected magnifier for the WLF on my SL66SE? With my ageing eyes and the standard magnifier the screen is no longer clearly in focus. My reading glass prescription is +2 dioptre, does that mean I should be looking for a +2 magnifier?
Thanks, Lex.

A good optometrist should be able to make one for you. Be sure to take the camera with you when you discuss. You might also tr y to find a Rollei magnifying Hood (Chimney finder) which has variable dioptre adjustment. It's a rather arcane accessory, but with some searching you might be able to find one. Good luck!
