[Leica] IMG: Focusing

[Jim Nichols]

Hi Alan,

My only Fuji is the X-E1, which I like a lot.  However, when working in 
sunlight, as a left-eyed shooter, I'm continually bothered by extraneous 
light entering the eyepiece, and have to resort to cupping my left hand 
around the end of the camera to shield the viewfinder.  I do wear 
glasses, so that adds to the problem.  From all of the searching I have 
done online, it seems that no one can devise an eye cup for the X-E1.  
The X-T1 and X-T2 have significant eye cups, set in from the left 
corner, so I was hoping that this would solve my problem when working in 
sunlight.

Indoors, the X-E1 is fine.
