Just as a point of information, the electronic viewfinder of my video camera has an optical lens arrangement in front of if to allow focussing of the eye onto the viewfinder. The focus for this is easy to change, and I move it depending on weather I'm wearing my glasses or not. Much as I hate these electronic viewfinders, and mine is extremely high resolution (and a cathode ray tube to boot!), it is pretty easy to see and use. Probably smaller still cameras will not have as good an arrangement - and again, it all depends on the quality of the screen. Most suck. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
