Hi Carlos -

If I go this route, my Koni-Omegaflex is a better choice. It uses
extension tubes instead of diopters, a GG that is more accurately
positioned in the film channel than most, and a couple of nice
magnifying hoods which greatly help in viewing. I get better
flexibility and performance and on 67.
