Winsor,

It would probably be a good idea for me to become more familiar 
with my own equipment.  It's not a 10X.  It's a Cabin Pro 8X 
Loupe PL-8.  So much for my awareness and/or memory.

B&H had a special on these a couple of years ago for, best I 
recall, $100 per.  It covers approximately 75 percent of a 35mm 
tranny and comes with both an opaque and a translucent bottom, 
and the eyepiece is threaded so it can be focused.  Mamiya 
distrubtes these, and I am right happy with mine.  Also, it's a 
perfect fit for one of the small Olympus drawstring lens pouches.
