What is the widest frame dimension on the sides? Am I lucky enough that its 40mm? I'm attaching an LCOS imager to them.

The earpiece stem is indeed 40mm. However, the overall widest point is 60mm where the battery power source sits slightly aft of the hinges, starting 60mm below the top of the stem.

depends on the lens you want to cover. Look at the front of the lens, it will give the size there. this one is 40.5

It's a BR40. I have it installed next to another BR40 and there's no visible size different from the viewer's perspective.

You put this on top of the SEL16F28 and it turns it into an ultra wide, I think from 16mm to 12mm, i really recommend it.

I no longer have this mount so the best way to determine this is to go to Optics Planet where they list these dimensions or a better mount is UTG found on various web sites besides Amazon.

Maybe 11'x4"? It's semi convex so it gives you a great field of view. I run it on my Teryx4. I've been really happy with it.

For what it's worth, I have a Nikon Force XR 2.5-8 X 28, which has a 41 mm outside diameter eyepiece (with a lens cap over that), and I had to use the medium height Warne mounts to give it enough clearance on the rail of my Ruger Scout Rifle.

85" with legs and center column at their max. It's pretty lightweight (carbon). At full extension, you might want to add some counter weight if your camera/lens is heavy.

It will look like a 65mm on your camera. Because of the cropped sensor. It's all up to your personal preference if you want a medium/tight lens or a wide one.

The Swi-View has a relatively large loupe. It replaced a cheaper hood/loupe combo, which had a 3X loupe, but it was smaller. I have no trouble seeing the entire 3" screen on my Canon 60Da with the Swi-View. I also like the way it attaches (actually "slides onto") the screen. I use it almost 100% of the time for astroimaging, particularly for focusing the optic, using the 5x or 10x mag feature of the 60Da's screen.

Does anyone know if this is mountable to the 20mm micro 4/3 Lumix lens they both have the threaded 46mm but I have run into issues where the conversion lens actually touches my lens glass with cheaper units?Thanks, no retailer has these near me in PHX so I cannot try fitting them together first.

savy7 answered the question correctly.60mm on a DX camera so not wide angle

Dave, it's 58mm. I also agree with Robert. If you need more info: orionstar2011@hotmail.com

It'll definitely give you a wider frame. Closer to what a full frame 50mm would give you.

That is a very subjective question as I have seen plenty of wider, and less wide lenses be used for the night sky. If you are using a full frame camera, 35 can be considered on the wide end. If on an APS-C camera I would not consider it wide, however I have seen some great night sky shots that are not wide. The aperture on this lens will make it conducive to shooting the night sky so that will not be an issue. What you can do is if you go to Flickr, search night sky and look at images that you like. If you click on them they will often tell you what lens is being used which may help you decide. Other wider options from Samyang are their 14mm 2.8, and 24mm 1.4 lenses. Hope that helps!

Yes. I use it for a Tijicon 2.5 X 10 X 56mm, so I don't see any issue with a 40mm objective lens.
