Canon RP Thread

[koenkooi]

I've had the RP for a little over a month and the main thing that bothers me is that the eyecup is uncomfortable against my brow.

Can anyone recommend a replacement cup that would fit?

Can it actually be user replaced?

I read somewhere that the cups on the R and RP are hard to replace and that there are no plans by the usual 3rd party mfgs to design replacements because of it. I had a lot of high level UV light exposure in my younger working years so have been cleared for cataract surgery in the spring. No more glasses after that. That will help.

Thank you. If that is the case, I'll work to get used to it.

It can be a PITA in bright morning/afternoon light.

Two months ago I emailed Hoodman USA and they said it is not practical to make an eyecup because removing factory cup is too hard for most customers.
