As others have mentioned the Nikon ones for FA FE FE2 etc also work. And Zeiss makes a series as well in +5.0 to -5.0 steps. I use a - 1.0 to help my aging eyes that I bought here in Vancouver at Leo's Camera. It was expensive - C$40 -but worth it to have a clearer view of both the OVF and the EVF (when I use it). Howard
