WANTED E1 Eyecup

[timg]

I've just lost the eyecup from my E1 and have been looking around and they seem to retail at around £20!

Does anyone have a spare one to sell or know of anywhere cheaper to get one?

Shameless bump!

Looking at B&H and Adorama and they have these for $7.95 which converts to £4.97 which is more along the lines of what I thought they would cost (considering they are just a small piece of rubber!)... surely somewhere in the UK must sell them closer to that price!

Try asking Luton Camera Repair Services - http://www.lutoncameras.co.uk/ . They list some accessories on their website, nt including the EP-1 but the othetrs vary in price from £4.99 to £9.99. They might have the EP-1 in stock even though it's not listed.

They charge a lot for postage, other contributors have said that they will be happy of you send a stamped addressed jiffy-bag for small items. Alternatively I will be visiting soon to collect a lens from repair - I will happily pick one up for you (if they have them of course) and send it on down at cost.

Ciao ... John

A few weeks ago Luton told me they could get hold of an EP-2 eyecup for £25-ish+post so I'm guessing an EP-1 would be no problem. They don't do the SAE thing any more however, I asked in relation to the sync & flash caps I bought from them on that occasion.

Thanks guys, I should have mentioned that Luton was the first place I tried but they no longer have them in stock... apparently Olympus stopped making them around 18 months ago so I guess they're going to get harder to come by.
