Eye cup for HV90x

[dougberry]

Does anyone know where I can order a replacement eye cup for HV90x?
Thanks

My experience is with the HVD 90 (for digital). I think the eye cup is only available through Hasselblad dealers. I don`t know of any aftermarket units (like Delkin, or Pearstone, etc.).
They are fairly pricey. My dealer suggested a newer style low profile unit that doesn`t fall off so easy.
It was purchased because I know it will be only a matter of time before I loose mine for good.

So the eye cup glues on rather than a friction fit (e.g. stretching the center around the eyepiece)?  Mine fell off the other day, and I was trying to figure out how to put it back on.  Sounds like it is no wonder I couldn't get it to fit back on - I wasn't gluing it to anything.
Thanks!

There are two different eyecups.  The longer (deeper) one is very soft and tears very easily.  I finally bought several of the shorter, tougher ones from Hasselblad service ... they change easily in a minute or two if you have the correct screw driver.  Since buying the shorter, tougher ones, I haven't had to replace one.    Bill

But your nose is always on the backscreen with the shorter eyecup, and so the skinfat also, I hate smudgy screens. Sry, thats not a alternative solution for me maybe for somebody else.
