My E-l has a built-in shutter, with an external lever, as do a number of other cameras. Knowing the EOS line and Canon, they may have gone the external cap route to reduce yet another possible point of entry for dust or moisture, although I would think sealing a little shaft would be pretty easy. -----Original Message----- From: lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org [mailto:lug-bounces+bdcolen=earthlink.net@leica-users.org] On Behalf Of Richard C. Floyd Sent: Wednesday, December 01, 2004 11:10 AM To: Leica Users Group Subject: Re: [Leica] Leica Long Lenses on Digital Canon SLRs On my EOS cameras there is a viewfinder cap built into the neckstrap for blocking the eyepiece from stray light when your eye is not at the camera. I would imagine the DRebel has the same or an accessory cap that came in the box to do the same. Check the manual for this. Rick
