No problem at all.

No problem at all.
Just one problem though, I have found I could not focus accurately without a
2X magnifer with my MZ-M. The viewing area is really small (almost tiny).
However, I seems to be the only person with this problem. I strongly advise
you tried this particular model before put down your money. Mind you that I
have made pin sharp pictures when I use the magnifier.
