What do you mean, exactly, by "clip on pop up shade"?

Do you mean a clip on diffuser for the pop-up flash?

If so, it's easy enough to make one from a transluscent film canister. Just cut a slot in the side of the canister such that it fits over the pop-up flash.

Otherwise, check out this Lumiquest product.

Perhaps you mean a shade for the rear screen? Like this one.

It's not clear to me what it is you are after.

Or do you mean something like this?

In which case I haven't seen any either - only glass or plastic covers.

I had one made by Delkin for my *anon DSLR. I soon got fed up with folding it up to use the viewfinder and then opening it back up to view the screen.
Friendly Regards

I have looked further, but none seem to be available for K20D. Even a shop which has all sorts of weird and wonderful camera accessories only offers glass shields for the K20D.

Is there nothing on e-bay?

"Pop-up shade", if read another way, can mean a "shade for a pop-up [flash]". Excuse me for asking for clarification. I hope your search is succesful.

Even Gwyn wasn't sure and i was thinking also about the pop-up flash so it isn't just you.

I wonder if they have a problem, making the mounting miss the focus selection dial on the K20, and that's why they are not available.
