Olympus E-5 is their old DSLR model, before they went with the mirrorless system cameras.
THIS ONE ON EBAY
is the only one that seems to exist for sale as of this moment.
Ad says E-300/E-500, but from the searching I did around the traps, they use the same eyecup design ... so will fit.
Technically the designated std eyecup for the E5(and E3) was the AS-AP6, and there are a few variations of eyecup types you can use .. eg. the AS-EP6(W) is a bit larger for easier use for glass wearing types.
Also a few magnifying adapters 'were' available, I think I found one for sale, but lost the link(and can't find it via my browser history) .. this was the ME-1.
I'd go for the local one in the link(to ebay) ...
... bugger! found the link to the ME-1 magnifying dipoter .. USA site, a bit expensive too.
ME-1 ON VIDEO DIRECT WEBSITE(US)
So note: that the one from the US will cost about $50-60 with exchange rate included, plus postage on top of that.
There are a few advantages in adapting a rectangular viewfinder cup to a round one(did that with my past Nikons).
Also note:
if you do wear glasses or needed to adjust the diopter a fair whack from its middle setting, Video Direct also have the DE diopters (in stock) if that helps. If you don't wear glasses, or don't need that variation in vf range, DON'T get these types.
hope that helps.
