The SF1 eyecup is unique in that it has a tiny plastic window on the
left that allows the user to see the RTF flash-ready light, which is
not actually in the viewfinder but a separate light to the left of
the eyepiece. I don't know why they did that, as any external flash
gets a ready light in the viewfinder itself and subsequent cameras,
like the PZ-1 and onward, used separate icons in the viewfinder for
RTF and external flash-ready signals.
The last two eyecups on eBay went for about $28 and more than $30, I believe.

These have gotten rare and a bit pricey in the past couple of
months, it seems -- does anyone have one for sale or trade?
I've been looking for one for a fellow for a number of years, with no
success.
I don't suppose anyone knows if an istD eyecup will fit an SF1?
