off all the indicators ... They're distracting.

Sadly for me, I just don't have the excellent eye-sight required to do that. If I had the time I'd have adjusted the diopter setting (I'm far-sighted and require reading glasses) which would have helped, but without a ground glass or split prism, and better light or at least a bright point of light in the scene, I just can't focus accurately with the plain VFs anyway.

I find the Pentax indicators to be pretty low-key and unobtrusive so they are super easy to ignore when I don't need 'em. I've never had the inclination to turn them off. (Can they even be turned off?)
