It's even better with Sriracha Sauce.

The eyecups that slide off are really bad because when you are
carrying the camera over your shoulder of from your neck with the back
of the camera next to your body, it will come off as you walk.

The E-system eyecups have a different problem. While the eyecup is
bayonet mounted to the camera, the rubber itself will come off the
plastic bayonet mount itself.

Back to the OM system eyecups. There were two versions. The original
round version was great for blocking light, but required removal every
time you changed film. The second version didn't require removal, but
was barely more than a bumper to prevent the hot shoe from digging
into our eyebrow.

Some things the OM system was very good at. Eyecups weren't among them.
