It also helps to keep the diopter adjustment from getting bumped and 
changed accidentally.

I just ordered one from Pentax.  It was a little expensive, as I recall. 
 Then I went out and bought a bag of those little black rubber bands on 
the cosmetics and hair care aisle and put that around the mount point 
after installing the eyepiece.  I haven't lost one since.

I have an older one still kicking around with an asymmetric eyecup for
right eye shooters - you can have it for free if you pay postage

Re: eyepiece rubber

2010-02-01 Thread John Francis

That's what I paid for mine.  Bought together with some other
fairly expensive part - possibly the battery carrier for a D-BG.

The eyecup on my K10D kept getting separated when I put the camera
back in my bag.  Eventually I lost it completely, so when I bought
a replacement I bought a spare as well.  Since then, of course,
the eyecup has stayed firmly attached to the camera.

But if I were to get rid of the spare I'm sure I would immediately
lose the one that's currently on the camera ...
