Well I just received a couple new eyecups from B&H. Piggybacked them on another order. Stuck one on the EM5 and it lasted exactly 3 trips! No unusual or rough use at all. @ $10 a piece this really sucks. However this time it only came loose from one side so I was able to determine what fails. The little metal "keeper" that slides over ridge the on the viewfinder. They appear to be stuck on with a wee bit of glue that easily fails with a slight tug. see attached photo. I'm going to see if I can modify the remaining one to beef it up somewhat. Time to get out the JB Weld. A really lousy implementation of a decent design.

A mystery to me.
