The device includes a diopter that can be adjusted for individual eye focus, a quick-connect mounting system compatible with the RED EVF Mount or a 1/4-20 mount plate for versatility with third-party accessories. An improved secure eyecup mounting system has been introduced, enhancing the user experience by making it easy to swap out the eyecup as needed.
