I got mine from CP Peninsula for around $10. If fitted properly, it's pretty well attached the viewfinder.

I find the old DK-2 better than DK-19 as it will not flip/flush forward easily...

They're similar in shape & size but when you put your eye hard against the DK-2...it stay there whereas with the DK-19...it get flipped forward towards the camera and become eye-glass cushion instead of an eye-cup....which i guess is meant to serve its dual purpose.
The rubber is stiffer in the DK-2 than DK-19.

BTW...I'm using both on my respective camera.

I'm using it and I love it! No more smackig my eyeball against the viewfinder. Can't go wrong for 10 bucks. Pretty easy to attach it myself.

Just purchase one yesterday together with the 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. Much better for the eyes and reduce the fatigue when focusing.
