  • Viewfinder removed? When you remove the interchangeable viewfinder from your Minolta XM, the delicate focusing screen is completely exposed – this cover safely protects it from dust and scratches.
  • Stray light during long exposures? The viewfinder cover (eyepiece cap) prevents stray light from entering through the eyepiece during tripod shots, which can distort the exposure metering.
  • Lost original parts? Finding replacements for the rare original caps is difficult – here is the perfectly fitting solution made from modern material.

Technical specifications

  • Fit: Specifically designed for the Minolta XM/XK system

Description

The Minolta XM (or XK) is known as a professional system camera for its modularity. But this strength also brings risks: as soon as you remove the viewfinder to change it or store the camera, the fine focusing screen is left unprotected and exposed. Our focusing screen cover securely clicks into place instead of the viewfinder and protects the camera’s interior.

The viewfinder cover acts as a classic eyepiece cap. Especially during long exposures on a tripod, when you’re not looking through the viewfinder, stray light can disturb the sensitive exposure metering of the XM. This clip provides a simple solution.

Compatibility

Fits the following cameras and viewfinder systems:

  • Minolta XM
  • Minolta XK
  • Minolta XM Motor
