Long Exposure Issue

Dale H. Cook · 04-29-2023, 05:26 PM - **1 Like**

My viewfinder cover has arrived. It was listed as a "Pentax M Viewfinder Cover" and described as fitting a K-1000. It looks perfect on the K-1000 but is not quite tall enough on the K-70. I will add a narrow strip of rubber to the bottom, test its ability to keep direct sunlight out of the viewfinder, and report back.

The K70 never came with a view-finder cover.

But in old SLR days, it was "part of the deal"
