If memory serves me correctly, Moose pointed out that the pentaprism 
hump and forward protrusion is a problem with at least some Canyon 
DSLR's.  It certainly is with my 5D.  It takes an 8mm extension tube to 
get beyond it.  I don't have a side view of the E-3 available but the 
E-1 appears to have such a protrusion and the E-3 prism is supposedly 
larger.  My guess is you'll need a short tube there as well.
