1 & Dioptric Correction Lenses 1
| Summary | Main Characteristics | Notes - Related Units |
| The Eyecup 1 prevents glare and loss of contrast caused by stray light
hitting the viewfinder eyepiece and accepts any of the eight Dioptric Correction Lenses 1. The Dioptric Correction Lenses 1 are available for adjustment of individual eye acuity. |
The Eyecup 1 is indispensable to prevent stray light passing through the
viewfinder eyepiece during manual exposures. The eyeshade is detachable from the inner socket of the Eyecup for mounting a Dioptric Correction Lens. The photographer can observe a clear viewfinder image when he inserts the optimum Dioptric Correction Lens into the inner socket of the Eyecup. The eight Dioptric Correction Lenses available include +2, +1, 0 diopters for long sight and -1, -2, -3, -4 and -5 for short sight. |
The Eyecoupler is essential when the 250 Film Back 1 and Eyecup 1 are used
together. The number engraved on each Dioptric Correction Lens indicates the final diopter in conjunction with the OM body. |
