Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
Increase the viewing distance while also increasing confidence and comfort. With an additional 1.2x viewfinder magnification, you can further close the gap between camera and subject and capture greater detail in the process for more compelling pictures. You'll even enjoy greater ease confirming the composition and focus of each shot, along with the experience of increased comfort taking it. This mounted rubber eyecup replaces the standard eyecup on any EVOLT series digital SLR.

5 out of 5 stars Eyecup with a Smile   October 9, 2008
I purchased this for viewing my focusing improvement in some situations. It does what I required and I can still see & read all of my setting in the SLR so I am pleased to have purchased it from Amazon. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a better view of focusing. The loss of viewing angle on the settings in the window are minimal and there are no bad feelings on this purchase. It is a POSITIVE PURCHASE for those needing this help to make better pictures. Price is good as well. CB
Make sure to see my web site for the work I did with this eyepiece gcn.cx/myray



3 out of 5 stars Usefull in some Conditions   August 11, 2008
I replaced my default eyepiece which is a piece of rubber came with my E-510. I bought this because I like to use manual focus with my 14-42mm and 40-150mm. These lenses don't offer very accurate and fast auto focus and I want to shoot close-up things.

The conditions to feel this piece usefull:

1- Shooting macro.
2- Good light source (or maybe good lens).

never expect huge deference. 1.2x isn't enough and barely there is a deference but 2x could be better.

I don't consider buying this piece as a waste of money (small lens better than nothing anyway) because I use the Macro mode with the ex-25. but if you always use auto focus or you don't care about macro,then don't bother yourself with this piece. for the price, It's expensive for just 1.2x





5 out of 5 stars Olympus ASME1 EyeCup for EOS 20D   June 16, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

This EyeCup needs some modification to really fit in the EOS 20D, by either cutting or filing off a piece of plastic.

After that, it works well. Bright and make the view finder bigger, as big as the full frame view finder.

Recommended for those who prefer a larger view through the view finder.



3 out of 5 stars new eyecup for my E-500   April 30, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I've lost old eyecup that came with E-500. I found AS-ME-1 Eyecup information from internet and purchased it.
After I've recieved it and use it, I've found that its performance better than the old one a little.



5 out of 5 stars Olympus AS-ME-1 Eyecup on my E-501   April 8, 2008
Being used to my E-1, I was having problems focusing through the viewfinder of my new E-501. The ME-1 Eyecup solved that, was easy to install and has the Olympus great build quality. Now it fields like I'm focusing through my E-1 viewfinder again.
