I am used to easy access to the ground glass. Is there a loop available that has a 4 inch reach? Is there some commonly known trick for this I should know about? |

Omega made the same thing for a while. Calumet I think, still stocks a loupe with a suction cup on it. a bit pricey, but the Schneider 6x loupe is long enough to hold onto with the hood inplace too. |
