30Jul Upgraded Eyepiece for LCD Viewfinders
For those who are purchasing any type of aftermarket LCD Viewfinder and want to add the additional cotton, fleece, or microfiber eyepiece, here’s the actual product that normally ships with the real LCDVF. I dug mine out of a box (never used it) and turns out this is the exact ones that ship with a new LCDVF. In fact after a couple of comments and referrals, turns out this Eyepiece company pretty much dominates this product line. They are available everywhere and are used by several different companies. Quality is top notch and available in Cotton, Fleece, and Microfiber.
The original one that ships from LCDVF came in Microfiber – Oval Small. Available in a variety of colors (yes even purple), ratings over at B&H are 5 stars, run much cheaper than the Jag35.com eyepiece, and after shipping pretty much cheaper than anywhere else. Soooo cheap in fact, it’s practically disposable. I may have to grab a few to replace after they’ve become sweat soaked, or in case someone with cooties wants to borrow. Check out the Professional Fleece / Microfiber Viewfinders for your LCD Viewfinders.

What’s the actual size?

Yes it should.

I usually get them at film tools because they are only $5.45: http://www.filmtools.com/eychamsmal.html
However the shipping is much more for some reason, so I guess B&H still ends up cheaper. I also see from the size chart that “Oval Large” is the right size for Zacuto Z-Finders. I’m guessing this would be the same size for LCDVFs?
I can guarantee that Blue Star makes a good product – they are used the world over by almost every professional camera department. They’re meant to be a “disposable” so usually you’d buy a bunch for a show and swap them out as they get ruined by sweat, dirt, rain etc…

Updated the article with link to the actual size.

Yes I think B&H might still be cheaper after shipping, no tax.

@Sam – Contact the manufacturer and they can tell who they distribute to. LCDVF should have these, not sure if it’s cheaper for you from there.
