See the magnifying eyecup mounted on the K10D here:

It replaces the existing rubber eyecup, and is a rather tight fit,
so you would probably leave it on most of the time (I do :-)

If you are not wearing glasses, there is just a minor cutt-off
in the (upper or lower) corners. Moving the eye very slightly
shows either all info at the bootom, or the upper corners.
I do not find it much of a problem, tend to keep the info
at the bottom in sight ...
If you ARE wearing glasses it will most likely be worse,
but I don't have those anymore so can't test :-)

Really USE just for manual focusing, but I leave it on
all the time and it does not bother me at all.
For manual focus it DOES make a difference!
Actually, since the eyecup is several mm's thicker than
the standard one, it keeps my nose a bit further away
from the LCD as well (I am using my left eye).
