The new Hoodman Hoodeye Eyecup for the Sony A7 series is now on preorder at BHphoto (Click here).
Sony also launched a special new 90mm FE case (Source: DC.watch). But I have not found any preorder option yet.

Why not for the Alpha 77 also
i think they are the same eyecup mount, probably worth googling to be sure, but im fairly certain atleast the first gen a7 are same as the A mount stuff, even minolta film cameras
No I think you need to use an A to E mount adaptor 😉
Left-eyer like me appreciate that Hoodeye can be rotate to opposite side too.
As i never try bigger eyecup before, can anyone tell me how good it is compare to stock smaller eyecup?
Excellent. I was going to ask if it could be rotated. The decryption on B&h last night was pretty vague
I use both the big and normal size ones on my a7rii (using a cheap Chinese adapter) and both are great, but typically I go with the normal size. It’s more compact for storage, doesn’t get in the way of the screen as much as the big one, and does as good a job sans glasses. If you aren’t wearing glasses a lot, I recommend the normal size.
I used of these on a 5d2 for a while. The excess rubber on the bottom obscures the top of the lcd. I found the advantage to be nominal but the irritation of the LCD blocking enough to revert back. It was also slightly left comfortable having no padding.
hahahahahahahaha
How can Samsung be at Photo+ exhibitions like the rumors say they ll stop their camera division? As a clue we can see Samsung Camera Rumors is dead site since august 😀
And what does Samsung have to do with this topic? This isn’t your personal blog, stay on topic.
It s an more interesting rumor than hoodeye eyecup and tried to get info from others at this moment….
Samsung has stated they have no plans to close their camera division.
Will these work for ALL A7 cameras including the A7R and A7S Mark II bodies?
I like that there’s an oversized cup version for us 4-eyed folks. 🙂
I do recall posts from users swapping out their eyecups, so I assume the mount is the same.
I’ve had a modified Canon Hoodman Eyecup for my A7r for over a year, it works great for stopping the sun when it’s at your side.
I’m looking for this eyecup since I preordered my A7SII. On B&H website, the initial release date was October 15th but it’s still in preordre status… 🙁
Hoodman official website doesn’t give us more informations. Nothing about this eyecup on their website…
I have been screaming for this part since I made the switch. It is the one thing I have sorely missed.
There’s 1 on Ebay for the Sony A7r & A7rII body’s free shipping now! Search for Sony Eyecup
