Yes, you've got it right. My viewfinder cup is deformed because of the Porta-Brace. It's a small price to pay for protection for the camera. And did you notice--the zippers on the inside bottom...

Aft tally lamp cover missing
Gah!
The black-translucent tally lamp cover on the back (handle) of my XL1S is gone! It must have been poorly glued-on, and popped right off during transport. It wasn't in my Porta-Brace bag,...

Nix the buds
It seems to me that for monitoring location production audio, the last thing you'd want to use are bud-style headphones.

Also known as "Vertigo" or "Dolly Zoom."
It's used in Jaws, The Mask, and Goodfellas, but my favorite use has to be when Chris Walken gets hypnotized in Communion.
