Eyecup for CL?

[anselwannab]

Is there an eyecup for the CL? I have glasses and some cameras with out some rubber back that end up nicking my glasses over time. Just want something small, more of a bumper than anything so it doesn't back me too much to see the meter and Shutter speed.

I didn't see any ridges for something to hold onto.

I would suggest trying some medium foam or dense acoustic foam. Cut it to shape and fit.

Check the foam to make sure it's not too hard

Can buy self adhesive foam and just cut to fit the frame of the eyepiece and stick in place to act as a buffer

Other foam. Small bead of glue around the frame to hold in place

Great idea, I was looking for someway to mechanically a fix it, but there are no ridges. The adhesive is a good idea.

The softer side of self-adhesive Velcro strip cut to size works well. It is cheap and you may already have some at home.

Doulbe the suggestion for the softer side of a velcro kit.

You should be able to get 3ft for 1.50$ at any Wal Mart store.

Ive used this extensively as a lightseal material, cant go wrong.

if your left eye focuser then the hotshoe area is quite sharp so that might be another area to cover

Which CL, the old or the new one?

I suspect he was asking about the old one, since the question was asked about 3.5 years ago...
