As I remember it, the Pentax S1A/SV/Spotmatic right angle finder had no
magnifier but a non-reversed image and they made a separate focus
magnifier - a short straight tube that fitted the eyecup slots - and perhaps
with a bit of filing both of them could be fitted to an OM eyepiece (but,
unlike the Varimagni, not at the same time). I don't know anything about any
Pentax M or K versions.
