Made to serve as a reliable upgrade for all HoodLoupe eyecups, the Hoodman Upgraded Teardrop Eyecup blocks out ambient light to get improved visibility while looking at your camera's LCD screen. It has an ergonomic teardrop shape, which emulates eyepieces used on most high-end motion picture cameras. The eyecup fits perfectly on the contour of your head to create a complete light seal and offer extra comfort. You can mount the Teardrop in just a matter of seconds by simply detaching the original eyecup and pushing the Teardrop over the viewing end of the HoodLoupe. The eyecup stays in place while adjusting the diopter, since it is mounted on a slip ring. Also, it can spin to either the right- or left-eye position for added flexibility.
