Comments about Sony FDA-EP10 Eyepiece Cup for NEX-7 Digital Camera (replacement):
Been using my NEX-7 for more than a year now - about to acquire a second house - and my wife got herself one when she saw my first batch. I believe the eyepiece came off once; found it in my camera bag - no prob.

It works OK, but I found that it falls off very easily. I've lost two of them.

When it's on, it's fine. It does the job. But it falls off so easily, it's a real pain. I've lost two of them.
Still, good on B&H for stocking this.

Comments about Sony FDA-EP10 Eyepiece Cup for NEX-7 Digital Camera (replacement):
When I first installed the eyecup that came with my NEX-7, I wasn't sure I liked it, so I decided to try the camera again with it off. To my surprise, it didn't want to come off easily, and, having seen pictures of ripped apart NEX-5N EVF's, I decided not to force it. I was very surprised, then, to find one day that the eyecup had simply disappeared. This gave me the opportunity to try the camera without it, and I concluded that, while it's not very good, it's better than no eyecup.
B&H had the OE part in stock, at a reasonable price, and with free shipping. I would still like to see a better one - more coverage, softer material... since the 6 and 7 use the same part, hopefully we'll see some 3rd party options soon.
Comments about Sony FDA-EP10 Eyepiece Cup for NEX-7 Digital Camera (replacement):
this design is horrible for:
1. easily detaches, i have lost it twice.
2. too small it is uncomfortable in the eye
if you own nex7, you will buy this many times again.
if it was better made, i wouldnt have to buy this thing twice. i would have been much happier if they sold an upgraded eyepiece, so if i loose the sucky original one, i wouldnt feel so bummed into buying a stock one again.

I liked the design but the material tends to get greasy and sticky dust.
