Sunshade and Fuji F30 (1 Viewer)

Do Jessops still sell those slide viewers as I can't find them on their website? I used to have a viewer like that about 40 years ago but it's got lost somewhere along the line.

I would buy one of the 7 Day Shop shades but I recently bought a nice Lowepro case for the F30 and it wouldn't fit in with the shade attached. Having to detach the shade each time before putting it away wouldn't be ideal.

The Jessops viewer idea with a clip or strap attachment to hang it over the lcd could be the answer.

One thing I forgot to mention is that the Swarovski bracket type B for angled scope that I use utilises a plate that the camera screws onto using its tripod bush. This plate is slightly deeper than the camera body, so I have a ledge to rest the plastic magnifier on. This makes it a bit easier to use, as the magnifier doesn't fall off all the time - the angled eyepiece and camera are just inclined enough to counterbalance the weight of the heavier eye end of the magnifier - provided the 'scope is sitting about horizontal. Some method of fixing it on would be helpful for a treetop viewing enthusiast though!
