It shouldn't do all eyepieces from the ME onwards were about 2mm bigger?

Yes it does fit, I needed an eyecup for the Spotmatic II, so just tried the one from my K10d, perfect fit, so just ordered a K10d replacement eyecup job done.
Take care.

Just measured the fitting on the Spotmatic II, and it is as near as “dam it” is to swearing 22x15mm.ChrisR wrote:
Don’t know what size is required for your Pentax SFXn, but if any help as a guide. The eyecup from my K10d, will fit the Spotmatic II, like a glove.

Best gestimate is 22mm across on the view finder, and the flanges of the old eyecup about 20mm if that makes any sense Height is about 15mm Will have to keep a look out at carboot sales etc.Don’t know what size is required for your Pentax SFXn, but if any help as a guide.

Great set, but I think that (No1) sets mood perfectly for an agricultural show, well caught.

Why is nothing ever simple??? It's Amazon that I ordered the camera from and since ordering it last week it's gone down in price by £48! I've not even opened the box yet because I'm away from home so I chanced my hand and emailed them to see if they'll give me a voucher for the difference or I'll just return it for a refund then re-order it and save myself nearly 50 quid.
Nope, they won't give me the voucher (not that they're obliged to) but they're happy for me to send it back and refund me then for me to buy it back cheaper. This is what happens when you deal with robots and not humans!

I think you just have to decide when the price is acceptable to you and purchase, and if you are happy with your purchase, and it does what you want, just enjoy.
No, I don’t have money to burn, far from it, but I am afraid that’s the way of life these days, and I am old enough to remember, retail price maintenance and purchase tax. Then Mr average, would not have been able to afford a high end camera.
It was an offence for a retail outlet to give a discount, and you knew they had a minimum mark up of thirty three and a third. The only thing was, you knew that the price for product (x), would be the same country wide. Dealer competition was created by customer service.
Enjoy your new camera.
Take care.

Hi Luke.
(No3) for me, Image gives a good idea of what’s going on, but leaves the viewer wondering what is going to happen next.
