Hi all. For me, it depends on the range of the subject.  For portrait
work I'm happy to take glasses off and use diopter correction with R's
or M's.  For sports and nature work, I wear the glasses so I can see
what the heck is going on 30 yards away.  As such, the rubber eyecup
with my F5 hasn't had much use.  I use a floppy hat for R8 nature work.  

I would like to try rubber eyecups for R8 and M6 for portrait work.
