I use a cheater lense and if I use my speedglas hood (rare these days) I fit it to the bottom half of the viewing window which then becomes a bifocal lense. Close up viewing on the bottom and longer ranger on the top. Tried other combinations but found it confusing.

Hi Mick and Coldman,

Thanks for the replies.

I received another reply from 3S yesterday afternoon. This time I was told to use the cheater as Coldman suggested... although it wasn't clear where the preferred placement should be (top or bottom).

The comparison Coldman made between the cheater and bifocals makes good sense. I'll locate the cheater in the bottom of the viewing area and see how it works.

Thanks to both or you for your input.

Take Care,

Jeff

That's a little disappointing from 3M. If they market a massive lens they should market a cheater that takes full advantage of it. Maybe they don't work that way. Ill see what my contact has to say.
