    I have a Schneider 8x. Bought new for $$$. Then I have backup loupe — an Agfa $8.95 8x loupe that works equally well.

    I’ve shot assignments as cold as -17F (without wind chill). Plastic barrel loupes are better in the cold bc the plastic doesn’t conduct away your heat like metal.

    If the camera comes with a built-in hood the longer Horseman Loupe is handy as you don't need to disassemble anything. So it's a perfect companion to my Linhof Technika but on a Sinar I'd prefer the 6x loupe from Silvestri because it could tilt for wide-angle uses. I found 10x loupes magnifies too much and could become a problem if the ground glass is not finely ground.
