I use varifocals, but when I’m taking pictures I take them off. I have the diopter in the LX finder cranked up to its maximum of +1, which is fine. I have +1.5 diopter things for my Leica Ms; the Barnack Leica has an adjuster built in. I have a Pentax viewfinder correction attachment which I use on the MX, which I swap between it and a P30 that I have. My LUMIX GX8s have a dial that sets the diopter correction. The only camera I have which I can’t correct is a Minolta Hi-matic 7s that I bought a few weeks ago. I’m still waiting for the first film to come back so if they’re all out of focus I won’t know if it’s my fault or the camera’s! -- %(real_name)s Pentax-Discuss Mail List To unsubscribe send an email to pdml-le...@pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
