Fron what I have seen, one thread fits all. However viewing ebay and Nikon boxes for these corrective lens they specify for specific cameras. Is there truly a difference or are all +1 corrective eyepieces made to fit all Nikon cameras that have the screw in type of eyepice correction? I have seen some cosmetic differences, but is that the extent of it?   Stuart Willis Rating: N/A Votes: 0 (Vote!) Posted on Sunday, May 16, 2004 - 08:11 am:        It depends on which Nikon model. To my certain knowledge the the Nikon F2 and F3 use an identical circular screw-on. Some other Nikon models (such as the FG20) use a "slide-on" which mates in the side-grooves of the rectangular occular. Nikon made a wide range of dioptre correction lenses. They are not confined to the +1" Dioptre spec which you mention. Some of the F2 and F3 screw-in mounts had free interchangeable optic - whilst others were part of the screw-in mount. Hope this helps .... a bit.
