I have a bad habit of sticking my nose on my screen. Either I have a big nose or I need a larger eye cup. Anyone know where to get one. D-60, UK. Michael.

I had the same problem (made worse by my only using my left eye). I got a Canon EP-EX15 Eyepiece Extender from Ace Cameras (http://www.acecameras.co.uk/); that solved the problem admirably. :)

I couldn't find it at Adorama and B&H lists it as discontinued. Any other suggestions?

You know not 20 seconds after you posted that I was on ebay looking for one for him.

I live in the US and tried all the trusted suppliers (ie B&H, Adorama, etc) realizing that Canon had discontinued the item. I then tried eBay and saw prices in excess of $50-60. Tried Ace Camera (in the UK) and got one within 2 days at 17.50 UK Pounds (= $29). I must admit that I have a UK address to send it to and collect it from which makes it easier. I wouldn't advise shopping around too long as I'm sure all supplies will be drying up very quickly now.

OK, according to B&H they were willing to sell these at $16.95 before they were discontinued. Its now a matter of how much it's worth to me ($30 doesn't sound unreasonable - above that I start to figure out my own solution :-).
