Dioptric Adjustment in the Viewfinder

Use the dioptric adjustment in the viewfinder to best suit your vision. This adjustment can enable eyeglass wearers to see through the viewfinder clearly, even without their eyeglasses. The camera’s adjustable dioptric range is –3 to +1 dpt.

Turn the Dioptric Adjustment Knob

● Turn the knob right or left until the focusing point or the center spot metering circle appears sharply defined in the viewfinder.

● The diagram shows the knob set at the standard diopter (–1 dpt).

If the viewfinder image still does not look sharp after adjusting the diopter adjustment knob, try one of the E-series dioptric adjustment lenses (sold separately). (→140)
