Comments about Raider i-cuff PRO Viewfinder Hood:
The I-cuff has a great feel, and durable. I'm using it with the Sony PMW-320 XD camera with the flip-up view finder. The original rubber eye cup kept falling off because of poor construction. So I'm trying the I-cuff as a solution. The 9.5 inch cuff doesn't provide a tight seal around the viewfinder even though I have it cinched up super-tight. It also slides sideways and tends to block some of the viewfinder. It also doesn't block the sun very well from entering the viewfinder. I'm tempted glue the original rubber eye cup back on because the I-cuff isn't providing the solution I was hoping for. I also tried the larger I-cuff with results being worse.

Comments about Raider i-cuff PRO Viewfinder Hood:
The i-Cuff replaces the typical rubber viewfinder eyecup that comes with most cameras. The i-Cuff is soft and doesn't get cold in the winter. Even when it does get wet, it will dry quickly and remains intact. It blocks light much better than standard rubber eyecup.
The only negative is that the i-Cuff perhaps doesn't last as long as it should.

Comments about Raider i-cuff PRO Viewfinder Hood:
It's a little known secret that this bad boy works on the Zacuto and other finders for the Canon and Nikon cameras!!! I'm buying them for all my friends. Soft, breathable (lowers the fogging problem) and warps around even my glasses. BRAVO i-cuff!!!

Comments about Raider i-cuff PRO Viewfinder Hood:
The padding is a lot easier on your eyes than the normal stock rubber viewfinder hood. In the winter it stays warm. Even if it gets wet and/or snowy, it quickly dries off and doesn't get wrecked. Every couple of months some of the threads on the logo come loose, so I need to cut them with the scissors. Took a while to get used to, but now I couldn't shoot news without it!
- How long have you owned it:
- More than six months
