Hello Ben,

I use the magnifier with a 90 Summicron, and it is a definite help  
both to see a larger view and to focus more accurately (it isn't easy  
with this lens wide open).  I have no problem seeing the display at  
the bottom of the finder with it on.

When I'm using a 35 and 90, I'll often leave it on (it works very  
well with the 35).  If I'm not carrying the 90, I rarely use it.

I find it a very nice combo, and am happy with it.
