This adapter allows you to mount a Hoodman H32MB Loupe to a Sony FX6. It is similar to my other model (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4791597), but also includes a replacement for the Hoodman body. This model is lighter but is hard to print and post process as you need to use supports. I also see more light reflection from the internal barrel.
To mound the setup, all you will need is:
Print the adapter and body:
2 x O-Rings (20-25mm) or equivalent to mount it to the FX6 screen
2 x O-Rings (12-15mm x 2mm) or ewuivalent to attach the optics to the new body (you will need to remove the original & easily broken plastic clips)
2 x M3 25mm nuts/bolts or equivalent for the hinge
This is my first Loupe, so while I've nothing to compare it to, my first impressions are positive:
It is much better/clearer using the Loupe without my reading glasses than the Screen with reading glasses
Is firmly attached, and flips up
The adapter itself is only 8mm so a lot smaller then the stock FX6 sun shade
The loupe + adapter + body weighs 120g and their is no issue with FX6 screen drooping
Eye position does seems to matter else edges can be soft with chromatic aberration
I'm going to have to change my rig around about so that it falls more naturally to where my right eye is when using my "el cheapo" shoulder rig.
Edit: I've uploaded a Alt version which should be easer to print with custom support for the hooks (note: you will still need "Support from base plate"
