After reading the reviews, I bought this for my OLY E510, knowing I would have to modify it. It was more than I thought to make it fit, but I like it much better than the Hard Rubber one OLY puts out!!!

For anyone that wears glasses and the diopter is at it's max then this magnifying eyepiece is the answer. With it I can actually see the digital readout at the bottom of the eyepiece.
This will remain on my K200D permanently.
Makes Sony A300 viewfinder usable, and Sony A700 viewfinder awesome. Do not block eye-start. Recommended.

I bought this item to make manual focus easier on the K20D, but I do not notice much difference with this versus the original eyecup for that purpose. However, this eyecup is better made and it does help keep your nose out of the view finder.

This attachment will give you a better view of your focusing screen, especially if you wear glasses. The more that you can see, the easier it is to compose your images. This accessory does give a slight bit of vignetting of the viewfinder, but not enough to be annoying for me. I find it helps me make a more accurate diopter adjustment of the viewfinder. I love it.

The slight (1.2x) magnification enlarges the viewfield just enough to facilitate closeup focusing. Replacing the factory eyecup provides easier access to diopter slider, so you can focus either with or without glasses. As glasses move your eye farther from the eyecup, the screen occupies the entire view, requiring that you adjust your view a bit lower (as you'd expect of a magnifier) to also see the information bar.

The eye piece is a great addition to the camera. It does its job and magnifies the field of view. I also like the how the eye piece is situated farther away from the camera, this way my face is not up against the view screen. The only complaint is that this magnifier does cut off some of the corners in the view finder screen. This becomes a problem when trying to see the information bar.
