Does it fit straight on or have you had to mod it. Looks like it works OK.

Hiya CM,

Good shot of a Globular Springtail, can't tell you which one but I'm sure Brian or RM will know

That DK-21M sounds like a useful bit o kit, must save a bit of eye strain

Cheers for now

Nice shots CM. Looks a useful item - Does the DK-21 just replace the existing slip-on eye piece?

Nice spot :)
I have an Olympus add on eye piece for similar reason. Works well except when you have a shot where you need to hold the camera away from your eye.

might be Deuterosminthus pallipes, as Bandit stated-a Globular Springtail. I have an eyepiece magnifier like Brian's but find I seldom use it.

but I use the Olympus version but I would think they are all the same. Actually the Olympus falls off quite easily, too much play.
