That was quick. Somehow, some way my multi-function button is now missing. I also lost the eyecup…

The eyecup always pops off. With the next one, put a piece of gaffer's tape on the back surface to take up the little bit of space back there.

The joy stick button I don't know about. Actually, on my 5D2 it was so tough to operate that I had them adjust it once when I sent it in for cleaning.

The multi-select button -- I have zero idea, I went to use it and noticed it wasn't there anymore, it seems the top broke off of it. It wasn't from dropping, hitting or anything like that – just normal use/storage.

The eyecup -- I've somehow never lost one of those before, but I'll put tape on my next one as tvphotog suggested.
