FDR-AX33 viewfinder

[Peatsplace]

Does Sony make a soft eyepiece for the AX33 or has anybody found a third party eyepiece that will fit. When using the camcorder via the viewfinder it is difficult to view in daylight as it is a hard fixture and the battery is in the way. It is not always practical to use the LCD monitor. So a soft fitting over the viewfinder to exclude light is the option.

Hello @Peatsplace,

I personally would try to purchase the rubber eyecup for the Sony FDR AX100  or AX700, since it most likely will fit the FDR AX33 as well.

Tried to get one in the UK with no luck had to order via Ebay it arrived today from China but is to big to fit the viewfinder. Had tried Amazon with no luck. In P.C.World the young assistant said yes and lead me halfway round the store  before stopping in front of a Laptop and trying to sell me one ask how it fitted to the viewfinder of the camcorder then left the store. no luck in Jessops, or the other camera shops in Cambridge. You would thing Sony would make one for the AX33 and its successors.  But it seems the only accessory they think you need are spare batteries and SD cards.
