Does anyone know where I would be able to get the Nikon 2370 eyepiece adaptor? I haven't been able to locate any online stores that have it in stock, and there don't seem to be any available on eBay. Better yet, if anyone can tell me where I can get it from in Sydney, Australia, that would be fantastic! Thanks for any help! Cheers.
I recently got one of these for my 20D and it works just fine without my glasses, but is actually worse with my glasses on than the standard eye cup. But then that's not the idea behind using it.
If anyone is looking for some of these parts, I have the DK-17M and the DK-2 rubber eyecup but I do not have the 2370 eyepiece adapter. Both are brand new. PM me if you are interested.

And the answer is Yes
Didn't know this thread was still active. All EOS eyepieces fit items like the EP-EX15 extender. Also, if you want a straight center magnifying flip up eyepiece for macro , I use a Nikon DG-2 (2X) magnifier. This screws onto the 2370 adapter which slides onto canon eyepieces. You can find the DG-2 pretty cheap on eBay. I got mine for $25 which is a lot cheaper than the Canon. As for the Nikon 2370 adapter, they're only $3.95 US from B&H but I guess they are out of stock there. They're pretty common on eBay search "Nikon eyepiece adapter"
Thanks for the answers, I got the DK 7 and DK2 from B&H and the Nikon DK-17M out of China BUT it got lost in the mail, never again will I buy out of China or off of EvilBay the dumping ground for broken crap.
Now all I need is the Nikon Eyepiece Adapter and the DK-17M .... again

I might have to give this a try - I just want something more comfortable.
not true
I cleaned my eyepiece under some running water, thinking the same thing
and water got in between the two elemets, and I had to heat up the eyepiece to boil the water off

Wow, learn something new every day! Thanks for the correction. Now that I think about it I guess it makes sense that if you wanted a true magnifier you'd probably need two elements to do it. And I'll be sure to be careful cleaning it now too .
