Anyone know where I might buy a magnifying LCD shade for my Pentax K100D and what size I should go for. Thanks

Hi "Rae000"

Have you tried:

and then click on 'Screen Shades', 'Digital Shades' and finally 'Glass Magnifier'

I have one of them fitted to an old Fuji S602Z and have been very pleased with it, although it's not the conventional solid-type like Delkin manufactures. Hope this info helps,

Best regards
Richard

I've got one but it is too strong:

All I see is the individual liquid crystal chambers and their associated transistor!



Seriously though, I wouldn't recommend them as the resolution of the LCD screen is so low. I can already count pixels on it without my 7.85x (4x resolving) 'macro-lens'.

Screen protectors and shades are good, but the magnification is pointless as you won't get more detail you will actually see less detail.
