I called Mr Maxwell and had a 30 minute conversation with him today.  Nice, 
if pretty talkative guy.  I ordered one of his 6x loupes.  He said it comes 
with both an opaque and transparent base.  I believe he said the lens was a 
6 element design and the objective was 1.5" across.  It covers a full 35mm 
frame.  Price: $250, not bad, considering other prices.   Arrival in 4-6 
weeks, I'll let you know how it compares to my Schneider.

Incidently, he said that the Schneider and the Rodenstock were both made by 
the same firm somewhere in Germany or Austria.
