Polaroid 600SE or Mamiya Universal eye piece/eye cup?
« on: April 17, 2012, 09:36:24 PM »
Does anyone have an extra?  :'(

I have a MUP, but either would work. Does anyone have any experience with using an eyecup that is not an original?

Thanks!

Sean, your picture brings to mind the "drinking problem" scene from the movie, Airplane  ;D

yes - sorry Stephan -  i couldn't resist it. We are an irreverent (and mostly irrelevant too) bunch here - no offence meant, but any excuse for a joke :)

sorry, I can't actually help you here,.,.,.,.,.,.,

No, but I will keep an eye out for one. Having processed nearly 50 600SE, I've looked to no avail in finding a substitute either. None that I can see. Skj.

That means it's going to be a diy project. Clay sculpture, plaster cast mold, hand soap release agent, silicon caulk... that type of thing.

Thanks Skorj!

I'm following that ebay auction linked in here and hopefully I win it for a decent price.
