Changing the Magnifier 24
Changing the Magnifier (for diopter correction)
In addition to the standard magnifier (-1.5 diopter), diopter lenses of +2,
+1, 0, -2 and -3 diopter are available for near and farsighted persons.
The standard -1.5 diopter magnifier is designed for users, wether or not
they wear eyeglasses, who have no trouble seeing clearly a subject up to
2.5 ft. (70cm) away. Those who have difficulty seeing clearly at such a
distance should use an appropriate diopter lens available as an optional
accessory. However, before making a purchase, test the diopter lens at
your Mamiya dealer to make sure it matches your eye.
Changing Method
1. Raise the focusing hood; then depress the sportsfinder flap and
frame.
2. Fold the raised magnifier, then lay the camera down with the lens
facing upward.
3. Hold the base plate of the magnifier from inside and under the
focusing hood, with the backs of the pins
(B) held by your fingers, thus
preventing the base plate from being depressed.
4. By turning the retainer (A) towards the arrow direction in the photo,
the retainer and the magnifier can be removed. In this case, turn the
retainer one side at a time while pushing it towards the base plate, also
holding the base plate from the back as mentioned above.
5. To attach the magnifier, place the magnifier and the retainer on the
base plate, facing the flat surface of the magnifier downward; then, by
turning the retainer clockwise while pressing it towards the base plate,
the retainer will snap into the pins
(B) . When looking through the
magnifier for focusing, the flat surface of the glass will face one's eyes.
