Help installing the DK-3 Eyecup?

[Steve S]

Is it a matter of just simply unscrewing the OEM eyepiece, and replacing it with the complete eyecup off my other camera?

Which cameras..FM2/FE2? I have the DK-6 eyecup on my D1...it was very simple. I believe I just unscrewed the OEM and screwed in the DK-6 as you stated.

ok, but how do I loosen it w/o damaging it?

I've tried twisting on it with all my might, but it won't budge!

Close the viewfinder shutter first!

It locks the eyepiece on. Very nice design too.

Er, on the D2X anyway.

Thanks Beezle! I knew there had to be something I wasn't doing right. There's just no way that thing was coming off other wise!
