Nikon refused to just send out replacement eyecups and that has inspired me to seek a new brand, for everything. My budget has a hard ceiling that I have already stretched to about $600. I know my buddy's Swaros are crazy good, and his backup pair of Zeiss is awesome as well, but thats not financially possible. I feel I can get a quality improvement for my limited use in that range.
