<< Speaking of astrophotography, I recently got hold of a very interesting
accessory for the OM Series. It's a sort of

eyepiece (thereby allowing you to set the magnification and eye relief
yourself). It's called the B&K Astrofocuser and is advertised in Sky and
Telescope. It works; it gives much higher magnifications than the
Varimagni, but you can't see the whole field at once. >>
Very interesting. By "great-granddaddy" do you mean this is an older device?
Is it still in production? Where in S&T did you see this?
Thanks,
