Anyone with a simular problem?

Like many others I am now using a new CV 15mm lens. My problem is that I were glasses, graduated bi-focals to be exact, and cannot see things sharp throught the viewfinder without looking through the bottom of my glassses........as if I were reading a book. Is there a corrective lens or some way to adjust the viewfinder? Thanks for your suggestions!

I wear graduated lenses as well ("progesssive") and I use the VC 15mm viewfinder (with the 12mm Heliar) without a problem -- looking through the top (distance) part of my glasses.

Alan, thanks for your response. I believe there is something wrong with the viewfinder. I only need my glasses to read, so even when I take my glasses off, the finder is very blurry. I remember there being some discussion regarding glass being out of alignment. I think i may need to send it back!

Carlos,

 

Have somebody who does not wear glasses look through the finder. Do they see the image blurry as well? If they don't, there is nothing wrong with the finder.

 

Best,

I got one from Camersquest last week. I had to return it. It was so blurry or more like distorted for lack of a better description that it gave me headaches. It was like using my late grandmothers reading glasses.

I also wear graduated lenses, but my finder is clear when I look through the top of my glasses (distance). You might check the alignment of your eyeglasses and if that doesn't solve the problem, I'd return the finder.
