Small problem with my Canon 450D

    Hi
    i have a Canon 450D since November

    The last week or so i have noticed that the viewfinder cup/pad thingy has become loose
    so much so that i have lost it on two occasions and only found it again by sheer luck once on a busy road :eek:

    I was wondering has anyone else had this problem and if so do you have any solutions to put it right ?

    There dose'nt appear to be anything broken
    Any ideas would be very welcome

    Cheers guys

    From what I've read, gluing it back on is the best way forward and is pretty safe once you don't get it inside the actual viewfinder.

    Yeah
    i was thinking about going down the glue road

    becomes a bit of a dust trap then though :confused:

    Bit of blue tak should hold it on, its better then glue as you still can remove it. It holds the back of my phone on

    Tiny dab of silicone sealer.

    Will be able to remove when required and all that's needed is another tiny dab to fix it back on again.
