On the camera viewfinder, the Canon Eyecup EG for EOS 5D Mark III, 5D Mark IV, 7D blocks light leakage for clearer focus. A silicone-coated plastic build cushions the eye for glass-wearing photographers. Slide-on mounting fits EOS 5D Mark III, IV, and 7D models. Replacing the standard eyepiece maintains optical clarity in harsh lighting.
