matnz Posted March 12, 2017 Share #1 Posted March 12, 2017 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi, Does anyone know what the range of diopter values is for the SL EVF? The reason I ask is all the specifications say its -4 to +2 but in the user manual page 173 it says -3 to +1. I find that when the diopter scale is turned all the way to the right it is perfect for me -which is +1 or +2 depending on what number is correct. I am going get a correction lens for my M9P and aren't sure if I should get a +1 or +2. Thanks for your help. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest NEIL-D-WILLIAMS Posted March 13, 2017 Share #2 Posted March 13, 2017 Just go to a Leica shop and try the diopters until you find the one you need............then pay the money and your all good Neil 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
matnz Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share #3 Posted March 13, 2017 Thanks Neil. I am in New Zealand and its quite some distance to a store that would have the diopters in stock so that's not an option for me. Looking at the number of large markings on my SL EVF, I think the diopter does go from -3 to + 1, so I am going to try a +1 to start with.

FlashGordonPhotography Posted March 17, 2017 Share #4 Posted March 17, 2017 Email Leica and ask. That way if they are wrong you'll have some recourse to return the first choice without argument. Gordon Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just take your camera to any good optician and try out some diopter lenses. Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
