Ann, this is probably obvious, but center may not be optimal for you.
Stare at the viewfinder info while nudging the diopter adj back and
forth a notch and you may get a sharper position. I also find it's
easier to manipulate that thing if I remove the rubber eye cup first.

Panic moment, I couldn't get anything to come into focus when I put the 30
year old 28mm lens -- almost 40 years now - on the K-5 .  Once years ago I
had to have it repaired because of a focus problem... . so I took it off,
set it aside, and put on the 50... still fuzzy.. nothing in focus.  as if I
had the cataract back.. soooo...

Then I look down at the back of the camera and.. ka-ching!  the dipoter
lever slid way off to one side.. centered it and suddenly all was clear.
Ugh.

The spirit is willing but the brain is weak.
