Thought I would share the cheap setup I made in 10 minutes that works as good as the Tines Up adapter and for only a couple bucks at Home Depot. I had two reasons I wanted to make this, one was I didn't want to glue a ring on my camera and two I am a cheap bastard always looking to save a buck. I used some scrap metal, compression coupler, super glue, leather and a screw.
I bent the metal and cut it (poorly as you can see) to fit on the flat part of the camera, and drilled the hole for the screw.
Next put a little glue on metal and center up the outer ring then pulled off camera and finished glueing both sides.
I had to cut a couple threads off of the coupler to get the camera in the sweet spot as well as glue a strip of leather inside to where it fit snug over my eye peice.
It goes on and off quickly, works well, and only costs a few bucks to make. I am not sure if anyone cares, but figured I would post anyway.
