Same here. 

Things have gotten a little odd with my no-line glasses and cameras,
over the last months. 

All my viewfinders are blurry unless I look into them from a distance of
about 3 to 4 inches. Sole exception: an old Kiev 60 prism that used to
be blurry before now is tack-sharp. The former one that worked well for
years now doesn't.

Now, with the LX's diopter correction set to '0', things are reasonably
sharp again from a normal viewing distance. 

I take it normal camera viewfinders - the non-adjustable ones  - do have
a slightly negative value as their standard setting. 

Now, is there someone around here who can make any sense of all this?

Further info:  I am far-sighted and my eyes have lost practically all of
their close-focussing ability over the last few years.
