[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 662710, member: 13090"] For long exposure shots I toss a lens cloth, or microfiber towel, over the viewfinder. I find it much easier than dealing with little fiddly bits of plastic like the DK-5. [COLOR="#FFFFFF"].....[/COLOR] After losing several DK-23's myself I finally applied a tiny (and I do meany tiny) drop of [url=https://www.amazon.com/Loctite-Heavy-Duty-Threadlocker-Single/dp/B000I1RSNS]blue LocTite[/url] threadlocker on the top edge of the DK-23 where it mates with the camera body. LocTite blue is strong enough to keep the eyepiece from falling off inadvertently but is also brittle so a concerted and deliberate pushing with both thumbs along the bottom and sides of the eyepiece will break it free rather easily. The key is using a drop of LocTitee that is literally the size of a pin-head. [/QUOTE]
