Nikon have obviously tried to improve their design ( but it doesn’t actually look like they’ve strengthened the weakest part). The parts arrived (about NZD$50.00 incl GST and shipping) and I immediately found they were significantly different to the originals. It sounds like they found it hard to get the right part numbers, possibly due to the various models (see below for part numbers).įortunately it appears that the eye cups are fairly universal. After showing them Don’s post, and convincing them of my competence in mucking with stuff, they set out ordering. They had to get special permission from Nikon to be allowed to sell the parts without the repair being done in house. I contacted the Nikon agent in New Zealand about parts. I was initially drawn to Don Enright’s post about replacing the eyecups and would have used his post to make repairs, but have found there are… some important changes to replacement eye cups – hence this new post. ![]() ![]() The thin plastic ring holding the eyecups eventually fails on Nikon Monarch Binos.
