But it's a big conspiracy of the camera companies, you see. They make
all the expensive "little piece of cheap plastic or rubber"
accessories easily misplacable (I lost the rubber eyecup from my
non-Pentax DSLR on the first day of using it, I lost the rubber eyecup
from my Pentax MX few days after buying the eyecup,...). They make the
most income not from selling lenses or bodies, but from these little pieces of sh*t
;-)
Good light! fra
My last pair of specs were scratched to buggery too on the right lens. When I bought my new pair, with some very expensive (and amazingly thin) Hoya lenses, I went out and ordered a bunch of Eyecup Fgs for all of my bodies that didn't have them (except the PZ1, of course - what a good eyecup design). These are pretty expensive ($A43), but they are worth it I think.
Purely by coincidence, I also came across a little bag of black rubber bands that fit perfectly around the eyecup, holding them on. Found them on the hair accessories stand at the corner convenience store.
Now I still have a problem with the Ricoh GR1s - hard mag alloy body, tiny viewfinder - so haven't really been using that little gem for a while.
