Hi Chris, it is ~15x.
I am surprised the infinity focus didn't work for you, it should have. My RA finder works as a scope as well :-)
Basically, those finders with magnification are actually small scopes.
When you are looking through SLR viewfinder, your eye should be focussed to infinity (that is how the viewfinder works).
The same applies to telescopes - you are looking at distant objects (and virtual image inside camera viewfinder is in infinity), and your eye should again be adjusted to infinity.
Anyway.. Good job :-)
