eyepiece cover

[tea2085]

We're going on a shoot soon in the southertier area of NYS. We want to capture some waterfalls, so will be using a tripod and shooting sloer shutter speeds. I am looking for an eyepiece cover for my d3300 but have been unsucessful. Could I do it with a piece of duct tape? Has anyone made a cover for their camera.? Paul

duct tape should be fine... or even dropping a hat on it or whatever

I usually get pronounced light leaks over 20 seconds or so. So if you're doing waterfalls your shutter might not be that slow.

But yes, throwing some duct tape on it would be fine.

Use electrical tape or gaffers tape to avoid the residue left over by duct tape.

Google eyepiece cover. Lots available. Not sure with the D3300, but with my D7000, D7100, D3200, D750 they all came with them. Just depends on how quick you can get delivery.

Isn't this what dishtowels are for?

If the time isn't too long, I just hold a lens cap near the eyepeice.
