DIOPTER ADJUSTMENT

Turn the diopter adjustment dial to compensate the eyepiece for near or far sighted vision problems. The adjustment range is from –2.5 to + 0.5 diopters.

Turn the diopter-adjustment dial until the focus frame appears sharpest.

• It may be easier to adjust if the eyepiece cup is removed. Farsighted users – turn the dial clockwise.

Nearsighted users – turn the dial counter-clockwise.

For easier adjusting, before attaching the lens, look through the viewfinder at a well illuminated blank wall or clear blue sky.

If additional correction is needed, attach a Minolta Eyepiece Corrector (optional accessory) to the camera’s eyepiece. There are 4 types available for near sighted and 5 types for far sighted vision.
