Frank.. if you had an M6/M7, what is the field of view like in the extremes
of the VF with the most WA frame line?  Can you see those lines easily?

( no M8 here.....)

Hi Frank,
it screws into the eyepiece securely. I wanted it to see the 24mm  
framelines on my M8 when wearing specs for this it is OK. The only  
problem is that there is no cushioning so scratching the lenses of my  
specs on the hard metal is practically guaranteed.
