I concur with what has been said about the Toyo loupe and the Toyo folding focus ing hood. It's really too short. The Wista might be better, but I have no experi ence with it. I use the Horseman 7x loupe referred to, and it is excellent, but can't be used with the folding focusing hood as it's too short. Incidentally, I bought the Horseman 7x loupe from Calumet under their name at consideraably les s money.
